    Shows that in link above looks similar. 

    Building faults – damaged or deteriorating mortar can lead to water ingress through the render. Any cracks in the brickwork or substrate will also allow water to get in. This can occur for a number of reasons including more serious structural issues. Any remedial work to the walls such as the addition of cladding and insulation, re-rendering can all cause issues that may lead to water ingress.

    If you ask me that leak on the render may have caused some previous damp? Feel free to disagree?

    Not when it's a party wall, not exposed to the elements.
