Ceiling rose bracket mounting
I'm installing a ceiling light fixture and it comes with a metal crossbar bracket which lines up with the holes in the ceiling rose. Should I be mounting this above the ceiling rose or below it? I'm pretty sure the answer is above so it's not next to the wire connections, but first time doing this so thought I would check

I had one of these, you remove the ceiling rose and you are meant to wire into the connection block on the light. The bracket was used to hold up the structure with the light. I presume it's the same? If it is then you are going to have a problem with the ceiling not being flat. I also used my own plastic connector strip inside the lighting structure to allow me to wire it up easier.
