Hi,

I recently moved into a new (to me) house built probably in the 1880s. The
brickwork appears to have been recently cleaned / repointed. There is a
fairly vigorous ivy growing up part of it.

It looks nice, but I'm worried about the effects on the brickwork.

Any suggestions?

It is the spawn of Satan.

Fight it now while you still can.
