Hacking apart a box room in the loft, to remove the water damaged plaster (header tank leak some time ago). As I was doing this I’m considering moving the wall back into the eaves a little more to create a slightly bigger box room which will allow a bigger skylight (as there are no windows!).
But, then it occurred to me that the vertical studs might be loading bearing for roof support. Is this a thing? And if so would moving them back a foot or two make any difference. Below the studs is not a load bearing wall.
