The husband and wife in Washington, Tyne and Wear, say they have been living in misery after only just realising the rental property was built directly into an adjoining car park. After contacting the social housing provider, Gentoo, Marie said an independent surveyor was sent out and the windows were condemned. Marie, 66, said: “It has had no maintenance on the outer brick wall or car park walls and there has been a long history of severe dampness. Joe, 66, said: “We are extremely worried about the car park as there are no barriers to stop traffic turning and if they hit the low wall in the car park there is at least a 16 ft drop into my garden.
