We are soon to exchange buying a house in Pitstone but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have agreed compensation from the vendor of £2k in the form of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but my lender will not agree to this. Why were they notified?

Any lawyer that is on a mortgage company approved list is duty bound to disclose to the lender of any changes to the sale amount. In the event that you did not allow your conveyancer to notify the reduction to your bank then they would have to refrain from acting for you and the mortgage company.
