All Victorian houses will have this, its not a problem. The way theyre
designed means they crack, and nowt will ever change it. Worries are
for when the cracks are large, or the movement substantial. Narrow
cracking and filling is normal and expected.


The building was built in Victorian times, and little bits of

movement are
expected over that time span, but not huge amounts. Good luck with

it.

Yes, inevitable and normal. Vic houses generally had minimal
foundations and no expansion joints.
