I downloaded an app to my iPad and somehow it has ended up in the Newsstand folder, which is not where I want it.
I'd like to move it to a home screen. However despite intensive Googling I can't see a way to move the wretched thing.
Is there a way of doing it without deleting the app and re-installing it?

To move an app hold your finger on it until it wobbles. Then move to where you want it. If you want to move it to a new page just take it to the bottom next to Safari change the page and move again. To stop the wobble just press the home key. To make a folder make the apps wobble then put one app on top of the other and you have made a folder

None of that works I'm afraid. Believe me I tried countless times!
I also tried using iTunes to do it, but although that seemed to work at the time, the damn thing was still in the old place on the actual iPad!

If it's in Newsstand and you didn't put it there, then that's where Apple says it should be and there's nothing you can do about it, all apps which are of a 'magaziney' or 'newspapery' type go into newsstand. If it doesn't fit these categories then you need to contact the developer as they flagged it as such when they shouldn't.

...although I have a similar app of a "newspapery or magaziney" nature by the same source and those are not in newsstand
Then the developers of those apps haven't so marked their apps, see here http://blog.computol.com/post/49356163113/baker-framework-4-newsstand-subscriptions under newsstand basics
