Where is the switch? I'd disconnect it at the switch (with the power turned off at the fuseboard of course), put the old incoming cables (to the switch) into a connector block so they're not loose inside there, and replace the switch with a blanking plate. Then you can just cut the cable.

If you are selling be careful as lights are usually included in the sale. If you remove fancy lights you usually have to replace them with a basic pendant. Maybe check with your lawyer.

I have an outside vintage lamp in my garden that I’m taking with me when I move (shortly). It’s got modern wiring, single cable, to a bulb. What do I need to do / buy to safely terminate it? I’m guessing / hoping there’s something weather proof that I can terminate the disconnected cable to when I take it away?
