By itself that config looks usable. Assuming the domain names
www.mydomain.co.uk and wordpress.mydomain.co.uk are the ones you want
to provide through Squid. (Though "TagNames Limited" may have some
objection to that use of their trademark domains).

There is something else going on. I suspect you either have omitted the
http_port settings or have NAT involved somewhere from following an old
Squid-2.5 accelerator config.

Or maybe the web browser / client app is in fact broken and sending
invalid requests.
