Ahh, not wings at all, it was gone in the morning, probably hiding somewhere in the van :giggle:

This page has a photo showing one sitting exactly the same way. There are 3 species of Dicranopalpus and it could be any one of them I think - or even a new species if you've been outside the UK in the MH. 🕷️

I haven't been out of the uk recently and am currently in Dorset, the pitch is partially covered by an Oak tree so it probably came in through the open skylight from the tree. I'd say it's definitely a Dicranopalpus of some kind. Thank you for finding it.
