I recently moved into a new house which had new lawns laid. Until
recently, the lawns had been cut religiously but on leaving the lawn for
three weeks, a great many brambles started to go through. I doubt whether
lawn weedkiller would be strong enough to cope with this invasion so does
anyone have any ideas as to how to eradicate the brambles without
destroying the lawn?

So you trace the bramble back to where its roots are, lift that area of
turf, dig out the bramble and its roots, replace the turf.
Repeat as required.
I love that term "lift the turf" - it makes it sound so easy, like "lift the
carpet" - I would be sure to water the area to be lifted first. (And hope
there aren't too many stones there).
