The bungalow was built in the early 1930's using some odd kind of mortar, which is really crumbly and some parts need fairly serious re-pointing.
crumbly yes, but deep down a damn site better than what the shite we use now will be like in 70 yrs time

Just a 10-15mm grind a nd point would probs suffice...

I wish i lived closer to come and advize ya
