Gentlemen, I apologise, I don't seem to be doing a very good job of helping you help me. I'll print myself an enlarged copy of the photo of the wiring above and take it with me to my son's on Saturday. I'll bury my head deep in his airing cupboard (with a lead lamp) positively identify each wire by doing a continuity test between each connection in the wiring box and where it is supposed to go and then note it on the photo before transferring this to a list.
Thanks for all your help and patience so far, Howard
