@Liam, Great! It is so many birds that looks similar...

Definitely not a thrush. Bill is too slim and neck:body ratio doesn't match up. This is one of the pipit family. Either Tree or Meadow. Lack of obvious buff flanks make this a Meadow Pipit (Anthus pratensis).

Dark Throated Thrush . . . A lovely winter visitor to New Forest Campus. Two races are known Turdus ruficollis rufficollis has red throat and breast and T r atrogularis has black throat or breast and grey streakings on the breast and flanks in first winter plumage. .
