My bathroom feed (SCH) comes from a tank at the top of Bayer, not from the mains.  The only mains water I have goes to the kitchen sink.

Dan... thanks - I asked the Housing Dept to confirm whether the bathroom cold water is fed from the mains or from a communal water tank in the building, but they still havent responded to me.

 

Jade/Lucy - my water pressure seems to have improved, although not to its original pressure.  There was at least one leak in the local area (Cloth Fair, and I believe around Morelands) on Thursday which may have had an effect, although Thames Water did not think there should have been any impact on Golden Lane when I phoned them.  I have confirmed that my kitchen tap water pressure is fine, and Thames Water said that their responsibility ends there, and if the pressure is fine at the kitchen water tap then the mains pressure that they have responsibility for is ok.  Per above I'm still waiting for the City to confirm re: bathroom cold water being fed from a communal water tank in Basterfield House or not.
