OK I have included both HTTP & HTTPS sections in a single config file as show below, no difference to the original problem it is still serving HTTP over port 443.
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.

So far as I can see the first section covers HTTPS and it has port 443, the second section is for HTTP and it provides port 80. Are there any other files that might override this .conf file under default apache2 distributions?
