Ooh, a green moth, that'll be easy to ID (I thought to myself). But in the end, I just despair of ever being any good at identifying insects from books
Maybe a Green Carpet moth? Or a Red Green Carpet moth, without the red (which happens, apparently). Or something entirely different. Moth is about 15mm long.

Your moth appears to be a Yellow-barred brindle which can be quite variable in colour…great image
