    Based on the very broad lip and tall surrounding vegetation, I would suggest this is Marsh Fragrant orchid.

    Thanks Rich. I thought it might be Fred's from his recent trip out to the Cheddar Gorge area. Very broad lip though you must admit!

    Probably the same site then, there's only one site on the Mendips as far as I know. What did Fred make of them?
