I rang the guy who normally services the boiler and he got me to double check the pipework, turns out you got it right! A long run under floorboards had gotten crossed en route. Apparently closing the cold mains into the boiler wouldn't diagnose that because the problem is downstream. Anyway...

Thanks for the help! It's due a service anyway so may as well get that done at the same time.

I am in the middle of renovating the bathroom (making it bigger, moving the shower and sink, putting a bath back where it used to be before someone fit an accessible walk-in shower) and I thought I would trace the pipes while boards are up to see if can resolve some of the issues we had been...
