Internal insulation/dry lining - shared walls?

    Hi all - in the midst now of pricing costs for insulating a mid-terrace. I'll be looking to dry line the exterior-facing walls (solid construction). I know I don't need to mess with the interior partition walls unless I would like to, but what is normally done with shared walls in terrace structures? I've spoken informally with a few people and have gotten mixed messages. I'd just like to have a better idea from the outset of costs, which means knowing how much area I actually have to deal with. Thanks a bunch for any insight.

    Normally insulate external walls ie. Front & back in a mid terrace. Party/shared walls (walls between yours & neighbor either side) insulated if sound / uninhabited next door is a concern & then internally in partitions / floors in between studs or joists using rockwool or similar quilted insulation to reduce but not eliminate sound/heat transfer between rooms / floors.
