Thanks everyone for taking the time to reply - I may not have made it clear that we will be replacing the old light fitting with a new one - but not until we've found what we like - so we don't want to actually remove the wiring/electricity supply.

Hi, want to take off old wall light fitting and wallpaper that wall. Don't want to put old light fitting back on, but make it safe "for now" by capping off or whatever the technical term is! Please can someone advise how we do this - what piece of "kit" do we need? My husband's father is...
