One side of my house (which doesn't get a lot of sunlight) has lots of

so much moss growing, does this indicate there is a moisture problem?
I have had problem with rising damp with the house a few years ago, so
should I completely remove all the moss growing on the side wall? Will
it reduce the chance of having rising damp problem again?
Will there be any problems if I don't do anything and allow the moss to
grow rampantly?
If the soil is too acidic moss will proliferate. Lime the soil and the
moss should disappear.
Re the moisture - perhaps some drainage works are required?
Cheers.
