Good idea - I hadn't though of that possibility.

Exactly. But that is how I was asked to do it. When something is
designed by a committee you end up with a monster.

It does indeed. A completely different approach - thanks!
I think the only way to make it less of a monster would be to reduce the
width of the banner photo a little, then the text will not go onto three
lines at 800px.

But in the latest version,
<http://www.tamevalley.freeserve.co.uk/hcs/index.htm> it also included
the society's name and replaced the text of the society's name - so more
than decorative, I should have thought.

Accepted. If I can get the <h1> back into the masthead area such as the
way you have suggested, then I will get rid of that line anyway.

I was saving <h3> and <h4> for other pages within the site. The <h5>s
are links to other pages rather than headings for content on that page,
so I didn't think they needed to be any higher in the ascendancy. Does
it create problems if some headings are not present on a page?
