Hello Mark, your specimen seems to be missing the semi-circle of small, faint dots which make up what passes for an outer cross-line but otherwise looks a perfect fit for Large Wainscot (it isn't Bulrush Wainscot, which is generally darker with obvious black streaking and has a dotted fringe). Large Wainscot seems to be having quite a good season - except here around Westcott!
