Hello Tormentil (I love your signature, it always makes me chuckle  ). I think the snail is a "No Stripe" Brown Lipped-snail, a variation of the Brown Lipped-snail. |

Thanks goosey. Did n't realise there was a "no striped" version!! On Googling for it, the only reference I could find is the BBC Open University.

I'm certain it's not any kind of Brown-lipped Snail (Cepaea nemoralis)
