I'd have put it down as a dull Little too James, perhaps incorrectly -it looks quite chunky.
Here is an illustration of lower scap patterns... except SemiPs can not have anchors and RN can look like Little..

I don't think Im lucky enough to get one of them at the same time!!
Just added a video of this bird here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ6GHHUsV-0
Not great quality (lot of wind noise) as it was taken using compact camera hand-held to scope with brisk southerly wind in my face. Shows it with Dunlin.
