I started typing a reply to the OP @jab1 but then I re-read the post.
ICBW, but due to the lack of punctuation I initially thought the same as I think you did, i.e. that the OP wanted to block porn, but I then realised s/he might want to access porn sites and is enquiring why the blocking is happening.

@Ianh64 Your opening post is very unclear, it suggests that could be using Plusnet safeguard, which you probably don't want or need. So try disabling that and see if you can access the sites you are having trouble with, however as @Townman has said there could be other higher level blocking going on.

Unless of course the Plusnet DNS servers are being over-ridden in the device settings. Maybe a third party block?.

They are the standard DNS servers, not the safeguarding DNS servers. Therefore as @Baldrick1 hinted, you must have some other safeguarding service on your device ... possibly AV software or other safe surfing technology ... OR what you are trying to look at has some higher 'authority' block.
