Thanks. The felt is torn around the soil pipe in the attic. But if you are suggesting that it is running down between the tiles and the felt, then surely a) the ingress would have been visible in the attic; or b) say it was running down the side of the soil pipe and I didn't see it, then it...

A roofer from an NFRC registered company had a look yesterday, ladder was just left of the svp, took several tiles up. Couldn't find anything wrong, said it was dry underneath, no sagging, good overlap into gutter, and the ridge looked fine. Gave me his number in case problem reoccurs. Odd - but...
