    Is this the only light in the bathroom ?
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill
  • They're run off the mains, 240v with a switch outside the bathroom.  There are two others that are working.

    The metal ring is probably only a push fit.  Use a blunt instrument to prise it off and you will be able to access the bulb.

    If you place the "new" bulb in one of the fittings you know is working, that should help you work out if it is the bulb or other fitting that is at fault.
