Natural Philosopher randomly hit the keyboard and produced:

You can either insulate the ceiling joists, in which case we need to
know the dimensions of them, or you can turn your 'cold roof' into a
'warnm roof. which is more than just laying down some insulation stuck
between the rafters.

A lot more. In fact, completely stripping the felt, battens and
tiles, insulating OVER the rafters, then counterbattening over that.

It's more usual to lay OSB over the top of the insulation rather than
counterbattening, as I think is the only way now allowed in Scotland.
