Have Halfords replaced the bulb on the faulty side?

It could be it's not located correctly. Perhaps the headlamp's full of condensation, does it look misty? Is it fitted with the correct bulb?

First, try a new bulb.

If you can disassemble the headlight, check the reflector assembly is properly mounted on its adjusters and that one isn't broken.

If the glass is clip on, check it hasn't been replaced with the wrong one.
