I agree with what you have said Tony.... a phrase that best describes the content of the page should appear between the H1 and branding rarely best describes a page of content. Branding should always be located at the top of the page structure but not always in a H1 (Frank, your example was good). If branding is extra important to a page (i.e. home), place it in the Title / Description.
