Yellow Loosestrife Lysimachia vulgaris, a scarce plant of the mosslands. I know of only one site on the mosslands for the orchid Marsh Helleborine Epipactis palustris, but as you can see, it grows in profusion at the site. The butterfly is a Gatekeeper, best seperated from Meadow Brown by the two white spots in the larger dark spot on the upper wing. It's also generally smaller and brighter.
