    Possibly leopard marsh?

    Most likely D. x grandis - the hybrid between Common Spotted and Southern Marsh orchid.

    No Southern Marsh present at the site - a cemetery high on chalk downs above the coast. Nearest S.Marsh site about 1.5 miles away.

    So what did you submit it as Roger (unfortunately we don't get to see that bit)?

    Hybrid is still a possibility even if one of the parents in absent from the immediate vicinity. 1.5 miles isn't that far.
