Any help is very much appreciated

Good question - this link may be of help, but I havent tried as yet

http://www.theweatheroutlook.com/dathistemp.asp

I,m after a definitive list of UK extremes - rainfall, temps, pressure,
wind etc - Have had a little success on the Torro site and a small amount on
the Met Office site - but if anyone else has any ideas, can you let me know
please.

Try http://www.wetterzentrale.de/topkarten/fsreaeur.html

and insert the date you want. From my interpretation I'd say it would have
been cold and possibly quite wet and there could have been a little sleet. Not
windy, though.

I do not have data for London, but in Wokingham, which is about 26 km west
of Heathrow, the conditions we
18 March 1979
Max 8.4 C Min -0.8C Rain 0.7 mm (24 hrs to 0900 on 19th)
Isolated patches of snow lying at 0900. Thunderstorm 1410-20. Showers of
rain and snow and rain and small hail, also occasional thunder heard, up to
1700.
Observation at 0900 : Wind E 4 kn Vis 10 km Temp 4.4 C Dew point 3.1C Cloud
1ok Cu 1500 ft.
Observation at 2100: Wind NE 4 kn Vis 5 km in mist Temp 2.2C Dew point 1.6C
Cloud 2 ok Sc 4500 ft, 3 ok Ci 25000ft.

This may give you a flavour of the conditions in London.
