I have to find the exact centre line of the party wall which divides two semi-detached bungalows. Unfortunately, internal and external changes over the years mean that simply measuring between the nearest windows on each property and dividing by two won't necessarily give an accurate result.
Before the two owners get involved with anything more drastic, is it reasonable to suppose that the external chimney stack sits squarely across the dividing line? If so, then the centre of the stack marks the centre of the dividing wall.
Many thanks.
