Default Eaves ventilation

Further into the clear out I've found some of those circular white plastic
eaves vents which allow air to circulate up the rafters, over the top and
down the other side. Hole saw as well.

Intended, I think, for boarded over loft ceilings where there is a risk of
condensation next to the roof.

Looking around, nobody seems to have them in this row of houses.

Are they still considered to be a good idea?

I wouldn't bother ... millions of houses were built without them with no
problems .....


Was thinking that - certainly not a standard fitment in any Victorian
house I've seen for example. And I can't think that rockwool is an
especially nice nesting material . . .
