difficult juvenile Buteo, either Common aka Steppe or Long-legged. The large bill, rather plain tail and mostly the orange bordered upperwing coverts make me think Long-legged (the darkish bib is better for Steppe though)
 
Thanks for comment i have looked at both and still none the wiser to be honest. so will leave as unconfirmed buzzard all best and a Happy New Year Mike
