Agents Note

In 2009 under an insurance claim structural repair work was carried out to the property. The work was necessary due to movement which had occurred between the original part of the house and the later extension and was found to have been caused by root induced clay shrinkage. Structural reports recommended the reduction of a nearby Ash tree and the removal of the neighbours hedge together with the installation of a reinforced masonry beam around the whole property. In the longer term the recommendation was made that the Ash tree be maintained at its reduced height.
Copies of the supporting paperwork are available from Cheffins.
