the lower NR part of the station


You don't.

or if there are validators on the lower
NR platforms.


I /think/ there are, but I don't use the NLL often.

Also, I don't know Highbury and Islington at all.
Maybe someone who uses these stations can tell me.

there are none except at the exit of the station to the street and between the
JLE to the rest of the station

shouldn't the Oyster give the traveller the benefit of the doubt where
there are two possible journeys and one is cheaper?

That's true for gates, but I think there are oyster validators on
the west bound central line platforms, just by the bay the DLR uses
- presumably for the use of people who've just got off a WAGN service
and are about to head docklandswards on teh DLR.

I passed through stratford today, and don't recall any validators
by the NLL platforms; wasn't really looking though.

Only if there are no validators (and they should put 'em by the NLL
platforms).
