So I went infoors, shut the door and opened my fist, phew! I had got it, and as anticipated it flew straight for the window and was easy to pot.
Upon a quick inspection I couldn't quite decide between Diplodoma laichartingella & Narycia duplicella, the former I get regularly in my garden.
Once home and in better light, it was clear it was indeed, Narycia duplicella.
Only the 6th record for Herts to boot and only the second time I have ever encountered this species (the first was in 2009 at Hatfield Broad Oak in Essex, 11 years ago!).
