Outer skin must have been holed with rust for many years for that to happen I would have thought.

Hi Mick. Here are some pics from outside. The gutters are not brilliant and have been filled with loads of sealant over the years.

whats it like on the rest of the roof gutter areas , take a few more picks all round as this will help sort of plan the worthwhile way

Ouch - high top alert. Prepare for real horrors when you remove it and as said, its got to come off. The rust you're seeing is the effects rather than the actual cause which will be under that high top.
