I feel I have no option but to stop this damp getting through, but
how?

It isnt possible, thats the point. Unless youre wiling to dig down
outside and apply a membrane there.

Nonsense. Next time you go into the basement of a shop in one of
those
trendy restoration areas, ask yourself how they got it so sweet
smelling
and
dry. I can assure you they don't dig up the street.

the point sir, which was already made further up thread, is that it
doesnt last. It also damages the soft bricks most Victorian houses are
built from.
