I'm excited to be moving to Aquiss' own IP ranges (AS215066?) sometime in the coming weeks.

I wonder whether we shall have new DNS servers: my router notes that we've had some 'DNS disruption' events during that last few days, when DNS resolution switched to public DNS servers (Google's I think) rather than the the usual *.enta.net ones.

That's correct.

At present, via DHCP, we will be round robin, between 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8 and 9.9.9.9

Enta are in the final throws of switching off their own DNS servers this year (as we understand) with them reverting to public DNS too.

I was curios if you want to run your own like dnscrypt servers without logging like AAISP does?

Might be worth considering using one of Quad9's other servers - 9.9.9.11 also supports eDNS CS. However FWIW, their primaries also do blocklisting, 9.9.9.10 does no filtering (or eDNS or DNSSEC).
