is the house a few years old as this was common practice to use the live from the downstairs circuit and the neutral from upstairs (now not allowed as all circvuits must be electrically seperate,an easy fix usually by a competent sparks but also by no means anything to lose sleep over)

hope this helps chap

if my presumption about 2-gang switch is wrong let me know
