Siting my Wx Station

[NorthYorksWeather]

Just wondering if anyone can help me out here.

I recently purchased the Davis Vantage Vue in hope for more accurate weather readings. I originally decided to forget wind speed recordings due to not been able to place the ISS in a suitable position and focus on accuracy for temp and rainfall. I therefore placed my station around 5ft off the ground in the centre of my back garden, which at this time of year is mostly sheltered from sunlight but still has a good flow of air running through it. Here's the original placement. 

Readings have seemed OK and only slightly higher than neighbouring stations during the day that are a bit higher in elevation.

Then I decided last night I would try mounting it on the side of the shed, which would take it slightly above where you are supposed to have your thermometer but high enough to catch some good wind gusts as its fairly open from N across the SW. I was hoping it wouldn't affect my temperature accuracy and today has seemed OK however has seemed quite sensitive to direct sunlight on the ISS.

Heres the other set up.

So just wondering if I should keep it on the shed or put it back in a slightly more sun sheltered area. 

We are moving house in the next few months and I am planning on eventually buying a VP2 anemometer to place high up to transmit to my Vue Console for accurate wind readings.
