My boiler has stopped woking and I think the pilot light went out when a fuse was tripped. How do I relight the pilot light as we only moved here a year ago and the previous owner's didn't leave any instructions

You have probably solved the problem by now but this happened to me. It was the fan and it cost £175 for the part alone! You can download a copy of instructions etc from Potterton site. I have all of them if this proves futile but they are not very explicit and offer very no information on when the pilot light goes out permantly.

This boiler does not have a pilot light that stays on all the time. It will only light when needed, so if it does not come on as expected the fault may not be with the boiler itself, but in the electrical system for your heating. Have you tried starting the heating system to see if the boiler lights?
