What possible bearing does the position of the hall have on the problem
of hearing someone blow their nose whilst you are in the bath? It
depends where the bathroom is, where the neighbour is at the time and
noise insulation (or lack) of the walls.

With the original layout of my 4 bedroom Victorian halls adjoining semi,
the bathroom had an adjoining corridor between it and next door - to allow
access to the fourth bedroom at the back of the rear addition. Same with
the separate inside bog. And probably bog type noises are the ones you
neither wish others to hear - or hear from next door. ;-)
