You might want to post this in the spider sub-forum

We're not super picky, but it's more likely to get viewed by an expert if you put it there

.

(a lot of new people miss the sub forums

)

Any other information would also be helpful; like size, overall body size excluding legs. Also any other images from different angles, particularly from above.

Offhand, I would be thinking about one of the Tegenaria species which are quite large with a body size in excess of 10 mm.

That reflection makes an interesting photo.

Hi Jeff

Approx 20-30mm

That certainly looks like a Tegenaria species; but, from a photo, it is impossible to say exactly which species of Tenenaria as they are all rather variable in colouration.
