Those flowers are popular with the butterflies at the moment. Difficult to tell the species, you really need to see the other side of the wings. A lot of the white ones are very similar.

Having said that, looking here

I think it's a Black Veined White.

The link Kev posted says the Black-veined White is extinct in the UK so I think it is a Green-veined White which is quite common.
Good :photo: well up to the standard we've come to expect. :) :nod:
