Is it splashes/ drops of sooty looking water or a damp patch?....my mother's chimney has been leaking some water into the fireplace. I think the pointing and flashings are OK. It's also got a cowl on the top - it's one of those U-shaped (half-cylinder) ones which is open at both ends. How likely is it that the water is caused by rain being driven in to the ends of the cowl and down the chimney?
Can I just ask? Is anyone going to offer to make the Tea? people pancakes?
Potsy? NT? Wol? Jo? Arch? Phil? Doc? Phil? Archie? TVC?
