Hello David, Thanks for that pointer. It's has become clearer after lots of missteps. I didn't have that IP address in the interfaces file to start with, so I had to add it with ip to get that interface up, and when I did put it in, I misplaced interfaces in /etc rather than /etc/network ... so I was tripped up a few times before I managed to get it all correctly working. Good now though.
