Everything under mydir is 744 and owned and grouped by me.

The access log records 403 and 451 for attempts to access files in
mysubdir.

The error log has

Permission denied: /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/mydir/mysubdir/.htaccess
pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable

Ah ... there is no .htaccess in the subdir, but does why does there
need to be one?

Thanks.
