    Thought it may be Narrow Border Five Spot Burnet but not quite the same.

    According to our tame entomologist:

    “Not a butterfly, but a moth – Scarlet Tiger-moth, day-flying when adult.

    Interesting to know where you saw it as it’s a south of England species with a local presence in the NW.
    Also foodplants in the area – likes Comfrey, bramble, Meadowsweet and also found on Sallow and Blackthorn.”

    HTH!
