The Building Act of 1707 banned projecting wooden eaves as a fire risk. Parapet walls were used as a solution, acting as firewalls help to prevent flames spreading from one building to another. Due to their position they are relatively exposed and suffer from deterioration due to the elements.
Buildings in Camden may suffer leaks as a result of parapets which have been poorly maintained. Because of their exposure on the two sides and on top, parapet walls can suffer serious problems resulting from water penetration.The presence of displacement, cracking and efflorescence may indicate a leaking parapet.
