Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Caterpillar on a wall, Claverton Help with identification would be appreciated.

Keith Edkins says: I think it's a Vapourer moth (Orgyia antiqua) - the four tufts are distinctive. The colour is variable, many have prominent red spots but this one is fairly similar to yours: http://www.wildlife-galleries.co.uk:80/gallery/images/popular?g2_albumId=97&g2_itemId=3469

It certainly has similarities but I am not altogether convinced, will keep looking.

The above link no longer works but an image in http://www.fotoartglamour.com/picture-vapourer-moth-caterpillar.html shows it is not a vapourer moth.
