Damp & Mould in Ossett’s Housing Stock

Ossett's rental stock is largely stone and brick Victorian terracing from West Yorkshire's Heavy Woollen District textile industry, with modern estate development around the town's edges.

As in nearby Batley and Dewsbury, older terraced stock without cavity insulation is the primary driver of condensation and penetrating damp complaints reported to Wakefield Council.
