Ah, I managed to take some photos this morning. Fortunately my camera has a huge zoom, so I could get close ups without setting foot on that damned ladder.

Mounting is an eye on a triangular plate, screwed into woodwork. You can see how it raises the gutter. I think moving it further to the edge (right) and downwards should cure it, or alternatively I'll have to use an eyelet rawlbolt into the brickwork with a chain and another eyelet affixed, which would get the cable totally off the wood.

How much tension can I expect on the cable? I guess I'll have to make a temporary fixing to keep the cable in place while moving the mounting point.
