Large Moth (1 Viewer)

Hi there, we don’t actually trap moths but we do try to ID everyone that is in our house or garden. For instance we have had Jersey Tiger in the garden over the last couple of weeks. I saw this one outside on the wall a couple of days ago and just managed 2 pics before it flushed, I have a feeling I may have seen one once before, this moth is very large at least as big as any others and possibly larger than Red Underwing but having gone through the Concise Guide a couple of times I cannot see anything with the 2 lumps on the back and the black & white lines that appear to show on the underwing.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated, regards.

It's a Red Underwing.

Thanks for that, I am suprised that I didnt notice any red when I flushed it. Also that the 2 lumps are not in the concise guide.

It really is a corking moth and the red underwings are just superb.Here is a photo of one i took yesterday.
