If you work in porta cabins at the back of the main building but still in the same site could this be classed as remote working? advise please.

Dunno Latchy - is this your corporate equivalent of the "naughty step" or are you operating plant and equipment remotely [you're not piloting drones are you]?
Perhaps you meant to say "Lone Working"? In which the answer might be "Yes" but that will depend on you divulging a great deal more info to help us provide more useful answers.
I would like to apologise for the unaccustomed attempt at humour - and plead "Friday Fatigue"!

Latchy
I would not consider this remote working. This would usually apply to people working from home, sattelite offices, short duration construction works or peripatetic workers.
Matters to consider in your FRA would be whether main fire alarm is audible in the cabins, will other people know where they are when they are in the cabins should a fire occur, can they easily access a place of safety in the event of an emergency etc
regards

Thanks for being so accommodating of me Latchy; I promise not to do that again [for a while].
Each organisation will have their own interpretation and definition of what constitutes a "remote worker or workplace" and you will have to start with that.
In the context that you identify, I think that PaulW has provided some relevant considerations.
