Many thanks for the replies, I think I've got that working now (although

is taking a very long time for the process to complete, think I was too

Hi Martin,

SAGA Add polygon attributes to points in the QGIS Processing toolbox is  
much faster than Join Attributes by Location

Best wishes,

 I assume I need to do some sort of spatial join operation, but I've
tried various options and searched qGIS documentation with no success.

 Thanks,

Wow, thanks Anita, that looks very useful - my Join query did eventually work
but it took 10 hours, will certainly try the Add polygon attributes to
points next time.
