 Nature at Carymoor
Many visitors to Carymoor who have hitherto had a vague fear of moths begin to change their minds as they are introduced to moths which have settled on the walls and window panes inside the straw bale house after the trap has been opened.
Then they comment on the evocative names of the moths - Elephant Hawk, Three-Humped Prominent, Lime Speck Pug, Buff Ermine, Wainscot, Gothic, Heart and Dart, Ingrailed Clay, Tawny Shears, Common Quaker.
The Victorians are responsible for most of these names, and one of my favourites here at Carymoor is the Uncertain, which is quite difficult to distinguish from the Rustic - evidently Victorian entologists were sometimes uncertain which was which and so the name has stuck!

 BirdForum - A macro for confirmation, please

my best guess is that it's an Ingrailed Clay D.mendica variant.
It will be interesting to see that other alternatives others come up with.
