Is This a Load Bearing Wall and can I Remove it?

by Andrewnovice89 » Tue Feb 05, 2019 11:38 pm

Hi all,

I am going to take an interior wall down. Have had conflicting views on whether this wall is load bearing (from different builders)

I drilled into the ceiling to take a look.
First image is directly in front, this appears like joists that run along the same direction as the wall (sounds good!).
But the second pic is if I turn the camera 90 degrees to the right, this is along the wall and there appears to be brick work.
What do you think?
