It certainly wasn't a Woodpigeon which I regularly see and which are much larger. I initially thought it was one of the feral pigeons that I also see but a quick look through binoculars confirmed that it was a Stock Dove. Unfortunately by the time I had got my camera out of my bag, the bird had been disturbed and had flown off.
I do record Stock Dove occasionally on my St. Nicholas Church local patch site but this was a totally unexpected record in the immediate vicinity of where I live.
