Well you confused the hell out of me Matt! Hahahawhen working out the height of the Batton you need to consider the shower tray and bottom of the window the skirting and the ceiling as to not end up with a thin cut you are unable to achieve. It looks as though you will need to cut to the skirting because of the tray but how much would depend on if you can go full tile of the tray without having a thin cut elsewhere now once you've decided that you baton under the second tile up. I would consider no baton and tiling straight of the the lowest points after getting them all there about a level perfectly by laying a spirit level along them and tweaking to get perfect if you are not confident doing that I'd suggest baton and cut to skirting and tray to ensure nice finish in case Batton is slightly out. Please be aware not all trays are level or flat this is why I advise a cut to tray if using a Batton, I hope this helps.

Thank you matt I understand better now and I have a few different options. Do you know much about tanking and do i tank two walls or just the one. Can I buy a batten from B&Q is that what i would ask for? what size spacers would you use
Tank both walls from doorway to basin.
20x45 dressed white wood ,(straight of course) you can cut and fit legs to batten over tray to prevent breaching the waterproofing.
Would also just check the position of shower unit, looks very close to edge of screen.
