This is not a home-gamer problem, you need expertise to fix it, which means inspecting it. Is a problem too-big for remote-advice to give precise advise. | |

| Feb 28, 2020 at 14:27 | comment | added | AlphaCentauri | @Ecnerwal Yes, there is a central chimney, however, to what extent it offers structural support to the house overall, is unclear to me. | |
