We are advised by the current owners that the property, and several other properties in Spring Lane required underpinning within their first 8 years of the original build which was early 1963. Further movement was noticed after the underpinning, but then settled within 8 years. A follow up check was carried out when the property was 20 years old which confirmed stability. The owners are not aware of any issues since.
