I can't travel far from Poringland. What is the rationale as to why all Poringland lawyers are not on all lender panels?
Lenders highlight the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lenders to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. It resulted in lenders pruning less reputable firms off their panel of approved conveyancers .

We have agreed to purchase a house in Poringland. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. TSB have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As your lender is TSB your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing instructions outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for TSB. The CML Handbook sets out minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to TSB where a lease does not meet these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Poringland.
