In midsummer the noon sun stands about 62.1° high over Purley, so roof glazing gets the full strength of it. That is why solar-control glass is worth considering on larger lanterns here.

Planning and building regulations for Purley
For homes in England, a new or replacement rooflight should achieve a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K or better in the horizontal position, under Approved Document L.
Planning-wise, a lantern on a new extension is judged as part of that extension, while one added to an existing roof can fall outside permitted development if it stands more than 150 mm proud.
Building regulations in Purley are checked by your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work. Installers registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify; otherwise building control must be involved.

Questions from Purley
Can I add a lantern to my existing orangery roof?
If the roof has a suitable opening and upstand, yes. If not, the roof needs structural alteration first, which is a job for a builder with an engineer's input.
Should the lantern match my bifold doors?
A common choice is to match the outside colour, often anthracite. The inside can be white to keep the ceiling bright.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Purley?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Purley?
With the midsummer sun about 62.1° high at noon, roof glass in Purley gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
