Thanks guys for the comments.
So I'm missing a neutral at the hallway light, that means it has nothing to do with the switch right?
There is no way I can dig out the neutral cable from the ceiling rose/junction box as it is buried deep in the ceiling.
The porch light is nearby and ceiling rose is accessible. Can I split this and bring a new ceiling rose to the hallway light?
I want to cut my losses with the original hallway lighting and start afresh.
The only downside with starting afresh is that I wont be able to chisel the wall to wire a switch. This means I have to settle with a sensor light, a smart light or some sort of wireless light switch.
What are your thoughts please?
