Default Electrical Lighting Problem

Hi
I recently moved house and at the weekend I pulled down an old lean-to
outside the kitchen. The lean-to had a light fitting and was connected
by 2 x 1sq mm PVC twin core cables. As part of the tidy up, I turned
off the electricity and cut the cables. Now I no longer have lights in
the ground floor of the house, I have taped up the cables so they are
not exposed and checked the fusebox and all fuses are OK.

Am I right in assuming one of the cables is the main circuit and the
other is the cable to the light switch?


I am happy to get an electrician out, but first wanted to check that I
wasn't missing something, that could fix the problem easily.

Cheers
Rob
