My man cave is fusty and damp. It has a damp proof membrane however it is a single layer of blocks. Tried ventilation without much luck. Has anyone effectively solved the issue? Insulation is out as there is hardly any space as it is and reducing isn't an option!

I was thinking maybe a greenhouse heater type device?

Oh if only! It's so small a woodburner would be so close to my bikes they would all melt.

Photos would help a lot TBH. Outside, front, left, rear....

Ours is single brick and dry as a bone. So something else is up I reckon.

By the coast with a exposed south westerly wall would do it! Fresh coat of masonry paint, sealed at the bottom.
