Looks like a female Norellisoma spinimanum ? a close up of antenna would clinch it.

If so - often found on or near Dock leaves

Is this clear enonough Mark?

I cannot remember seeing much dock but I see this fly (or v similar) quite fairly often - this is the first reasonable picture I have taken.

Thanks
