it was sat on this gate whilst his trainer was un-tangling his leash. We saw this while walking on my sons school run.

its definatly some sort of goshawk

Harrier would show a facial disk. It's a species of Accipiter, and my suggestion would be immature Northern Goshawk (Accipiter gentilis).

Lovely bird! Looks like it is being used for falconry.
