I think 5 might be a Large Ranunculus. Not seen one in the flesh myself though.

Andy,

Dark Fruit Tree Tortrix is listed as June-August flight time,did you catch it recently.

Another possibility is Clepsis consimilana.

Thanks for the pointer Nutmeg gone with the Feathered Ranunculus as it has feathered antennae whereas the Large Ranunculas does not according to my book (The Concise Guide), jury still out on the Tortrix though
