Since Martin created the FAQ, I think he will have written that. What it
doesn't seem to say going by that quotation, is where the Bartlett High

fallible - memory suggests that the classic location was Iberia.

I'd always thought it was that - a sort of eastern extension/version
of the Azores High.

Guilty as charged. So it's "a broad band of high pressure extends from
the Azores area, east-north-eastwards towards the Biscay / English
Channel region - perhaps now & then displaced towards the Alps".
