All domains listed in mydestination are delivered on the local machine.

So according to your stated goals, use:
mydestination = lydgate.lan

To deliver everything else to your ISPs mail relay, put that in the
relayhost parameter
relayhost = [mailhost.zen.co.uk]

You likely don't need transport_maps because it's for exceptions to
the above delivery rules.

myorigin = lydgate.lan
All your questions are answered here:

If you're not familiar with general email principals you may need to
review the various README files several times before they start to
make sense. But they will.
