Walls are some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 35% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Highams Park actually produces, so the fixing that matters in Highams Park is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in E4, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 7,368 households inside the E4 neighbourhood.
