21% of the housing stock in these neighbourhoods dates from before 1919 and 20% from before 1900. Expect solid walls rather than cavities, so damp diagnosis needs care: cement renders, plastic paints and raised ground levels trap moisture in walls that were designed to breathe.

The 1 km radon map square at the centre of Tiverton is class 4: an estimated 5 to 10% of homes are above the radon Action Level. 100% of the sold postcodes we checked fall in a radon Affected Area. It's invisible and odourless, so the only way to know is a test; ask the seller, or budget for one after you move in.

Under most of Tiverton the bedrock is interbedded sandstone and conglomerate (81%) and mudstone, siltstone and sandstone (19%). In Devon, older homes on this ground are often cob (earth walls) or local stone; cob must stay dry, so look hard at renders, gutters and ground levels.
