External Cracks All manner of questions and solutions to problems and issues surrounding the subject of brickwork, blockwork and stonework

I recently moved to new house. I have noticed over past few months a long crack along one side of front elevation of house that is about 1mm wide. it is about 18 inches below the soffit and fascia. I am a bit concerned. I have also noticed small cracks around window areas again about 1mm wide. Any ideas please before i panic.

I would not worry its probably settelment cracks but if in doubt take a few
pictures and check again any movement after 3 months
