You mean this?


Yes, seems to be number 3 that's gone down the hole

But number 4 is the one with approved planning permission for a basement
extension, and another application pending decision for an extra level
of basement excavation

of the foundations. And the floor joists of the two layers of bedroom
seem a bit saggy.
