Wharfdale road is a smashing road to live in. When buying a property in the road, beware of the properties on the even side 4-30 they have basements from 2ft- 5ft In-depth that fill up with water every year as it caters for the water table. The worst properties and be very cautious not to buy is no 24a & 26a as these properties are at the lowest point of the road and their basement collects water yearly that come from other properties as it is the lowest point. Water collection depth 2-4 ft yearly. Not good for brick and foundation that’s why the bottom flats are always damp mouldy and screws and nails go rusty. The upper floors B are ok only the foundations it sits on.

I read with great interest a post by Cyndie. I used to live in 26a Wharfdale even though water never seeped through the floorboards, due to the floor being 18 inches above the ground, we and previous and the future buyer had the same problems with rusty nails and screws.

Brown patches appear through paintwork where nails and screws are in situ. We’ve woken up in the morning to find slugs in our bedroom and several times sharing our pillows with us.

Not nice to wake up to. Our basement would fill with water every Autumn winter and early spring or any time it rains. The depth of the water can be 4ft deep, foundations are not very good, also our previous owners in 2005 have knocked a few bricks out of the walls part of the foundations,

I presume like us thought they could make extra rooms until we were advised by neighbour in 24a. I fully agree with Cyndie Please do not make the mistake as previous owners in buying these two properties 26/24a


Robert Replied on Thu, Mar 25, 2021 at 6:09am

I used to live at 26a until 2014 there’s a floor hatch in the hallway to check water levels, very puzzling we would see lady’s STs Tanpons and other rubbish floating in the water, conclusion is 26a & 24a is the lowest point equal level to branksome rec, where all the water runs and collects in 24-26a basement from other properties in the road. Slugs definitely my lodger many times was woken up feeling a slug or slugs crawling on his face or hair. Foundations must be unstable or deteriorating badly by now. Not a property to purchase. Definitely a pup.


JB Replied on Thu, Mar 28, 2024 at 8:26am

Very interesting to read the other comments regarding 24a/26a. I lived in one of those properties and the flooring was squishy like it had soaked up a lot of underground moisture. Would wake up to slugs everywhere and mould was rife.
