Damp patch internal wall

[Pete1931]

Hi
Really hope somebody can help.
I live in a mid terrace house and noticed a mystery damp patch in the lounge in the middle of the internal wall that joins to next door.
It doesn't feel really wet but it certainly looks like a damp patch. Just a bit worried , hoping it's nothing to bad.
Thanks
Pete

you say in the middle, but in your pic it seems to be in a corner.

Stand back and take a wider pic.

Sorry hope this is ok it's just above the back of our sofa

is that a disused chimneybreast in the corner?

No it just where the kitchen was knocked through before we moved in..

 

[JohnD]

Kitchen, eh?

Did it contain taps and waterpipes? Were any of them near this damp patch?

Photograph the other side if the wall please

No John it was always a lounge
