Thanks Paul, and on looking around I can certainly see what you mean. Saying that, the shape, antennae, posture and palps (and lack of nearby oak) to me suggest something like an Argyresthiid. But I am a total noob and have little experience of either group
You can tell I didn't have much in my moth trap last night, can't you
