Root of problem has been Identified

http://edlug.org.uk - redirects to our site correctly

https://edlug.org.uk - redirects to the other site - this is because
edlug.org.uk wasn't set up with HTTPS. Because of this, the backend Apache,
when asked for a HTTPS site, does not resolve the site correctly. If your
browser has the "HTTPS Everywhere" plugin like I do, then the browser will
force HTTPS and therefore forcibly trigger the bad redirect.

This will be fixed at some point by the hosting provider, I'm not
considering it a high priority thing for now so not pushing the resolution.

Thanks for pointing it out!
