That will most likely have to do with ssh.

I am not familiar with svn (subversion?) but I would suggest to run
the tunnel manually in your side with ssh debug enabled.

If you have control of the svn.sinodun.org.uk server, you could launch
an ssh server  there in a different port with log enabled as well,
that should throw some clues.
