Bramble shoot moth and the macro looks like Flounced Chestnut..? If you still have it have another look ..
Thanks Andy. They seem to be farely rare on the Yorkshire Moths Database. I have reviewed the picture and agree with your suggestion for Flounced Chestnut.
There are few old records for this species locally until 1999 when trapping in broadleaf woodland in September began to produce small numbers: 78 individuals recorded from Knott Wood, Broadhead Clough, Park Wood and Todmorden indicate that this species may well be more widespread than earlier records suggest. There were 9 individuals on 27th September 2009 and 17 on the 4th September 2010 to a light trap at Knott Wood Hebden Bridge (BL, AC, MH) 3 at Hardcastle Craggs 11th September 2015 (AC, BL, CD )
