We saw two of these close together on Midgley Moor on Saturday.
They didn't immediately strike me as being like Oak Eggar Moth caterpillars, which I have identified before, but it seems that is what they are.
The others were more uniformly brown as I remember.
There is a picture of an adult male Oak Eggar lower down. Our sub-species is apparently Northern Oak Eggar.
