butterflies look like 'meadow browns' to me

No, they're far too small - Meadow Browns are something we have at
home and they're 3 or 4 times larger than this baby.
Thanks for the reply though.

A Small Heath (Coenonympha pamphilus) then?

Males about 23mm according to my books, whereas the Meadow Brown is more
like 40 - 48mm.

Can't help with the Catterpillar.
