Leak above bay window.
The first roofer who was recommended by a friend and fixed the bay suggested the leak was actually coming from the main roof and running down the wall through the window and sill above which had a huge amount of water on the sill inside when we looked at it exiting in the interior of the bay window there is a water line on the render coming from the roof down to the widow above the bay the sill of this window sits on top of the bay.
