New Roof concerns

[Flat-Bumps]

Hello,

Recently I had a complete reroof. No membrane natural slates roof replaced with non-permeable membrane and manmade slates.

After the roof was complete I went into the loft and I expected to see the membrane covering all the internal roof space.
The pics show something sticking below the membrane. This doesn't make sense to me. So hoping someone here can tell me what this about.

Thanks.

Looks like the wood is to nail last few rows down... Maybe.
I think that gap is a mistake.
Maybe.

Watch this video as shows some information that will help you.

Looks like an old slate! Should pull out.

Thank you for your responses.

I watched the YouTube video and could see the timbers at the bottom of the roof.

I then took another look at my internal roof pics and realised that my pics 1+2 are around a chimney stack (which was re-leaded).

In my pic 3, between the purling and the timbers are mucky bricks of the chimney stack.

After searching for roof leading I understand that at a chimney stack / roof junction, there are :

1 back box gutter
` 2 soakers
3 step flashing
4 front apron

Questions;

Do any of these leads sit below the membrane ?
Do the membrane cuts / joins look normal for a chimney area or is it some kind of patch-up?

Thanks.

Yes. The back gutter can end up visible (from inside), depending how that have done the membrane.
