    Hi, just had a query about some cracks in the walls in a house about 10-15 years old. I noticed cracks in the top corners of rooms attached to the gable end wall and was wondering if this is a sign of a bigger issue? They are only present on the wall not attached to the other house not others. The cracks are where the wall and ceiling meet dwonstairs and the upstairs bedroom. In the converted attic there are also deep looking cracks that follow the wall around where it meets the ceiling and also there is a crack running horizontally about 1m down from the top of the ceiling. I have attached it as a picture. Is this something serious or part of how buildings settle? Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Post a few more pics but on what I see now, nothing to worry about.
    Is it a gable or hipped roof

    Hi, it's a gable roof. I've added some pictures here. My concern comes from the fact that all the cracks are on the same side of the house and wasn't sure if it was abnormal pushing from other houses in the terrace? Thanks
