Immediately found something we didn't expect
It's what I'd expect for an extension roof that shape (flat to pitched usually has a big beam where it changes angle) - how old is it? At this point if it was me I would probably want a structural engineer to have a look at it and whatever I was planning to do.

We started pulling this all off yesterday.
Immediately found something we didn't expect - there's an RSJ at the front of it that runs the full width supported by the party walls. The rafters for the glass roof hang off that, then behind it are small rafters for the veranda that are additionally supported by blocking attached to the brickwork of the house.
