If it is a WiFi only iPad it is picking up this location from a router. You will have to wait for it to update.

TThanks....if it's coming from a router surely that would need to be in London? I'm in Argyll in Scotland....a big far away for a random router ??

No, it may be a router that at some time had an internal address of the other location and is now being used near you.
