Now I don't use the ariel on the roof, as I take the RF out of the back of the NTL STB, which I know also carries the RF channel -s.
My questions are these - firstly, does the RF output on the STB carry the DTT signals, and secondly, if it does, My mum used to have analog Cable, and still has the cable socket on the wall - would this still carry the RF signals, and I know it's a different connector (f-Type?) but can that somehow be hooked up instead of the ariel?
TIA

The simple answer is no, the cable doesn't carry free-view signals, you will only get them through your Aeriel.
As an aside, Curry's have Free-view set top boxes in at £39.99 ATM
