Removing my half of chimney stack ;

[DevilDamo]

@jim88 Do you have a photo of the stack you're looking to remove?

As per the attached and if this was the case, surely the brick divider is considered to be a party wall element and therefore covered under the PWA?

Is than an american site?

Dividers? Those are withes, and they are part of the stack not the party wall.

There are no party wall elements in the PWA, there are party walls and party structures eg a wall or floor or some part of a structure separating buildings or parts of buildings - and that's the crucial bit.

i will get some pictures tomorrow, I’ve had a chat with my neighbour and I’ve started today.

so the party wall is 9” (2 brick) and it looked like the Single party wall in the stack was supported on her side of the party wall, so my plan was to use my side of the party wall to re brick with a new face so it covered the rough bricks in the stack. However once we started taking more bricks out we found the stack was kinda built diagonally across both party wall bricks (not sure if this was how they used to do it anyway).
Anyway If your following me up to now,

I’ve got some left over steels on my
Job and I’m fitting 2 that will then support a new wall being built up from the loft floor up to chimney stack height.

it’s more work than I hoped but at least I reinforce the neighbours stack properly.

I will get pictures tomorrow incase you don’t understand what I’m saying
