Looking at the Met Office Highs and Lows over the last month, onhttp://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/uk_latest_weather.html
there are lost of stations in fairly small towns like Glenlivet, Lake
Vyrnwy, Aboyne, South Uist, Katesbridge and several in Wales that feature
quite regularly. Apart from the fact that I have to google map them to see
where they are - am wondering what type of stations are these ? Some seem to
be located in very rural places - they may have a miltary or environmental
connections -presumably they are all MetO checked out for verification etc..

Hi, Phil,

Afaik they are all checked regularly the same as my site at Copley.
I'm sure you had heard of Copley, though, before I came along (;0).

Our instruments, exposure and obs are subject to close scrutiny -
often more than the well-known sites because some of the readings are
a little different to built up areas in SE England as you have noted.
