This is an opilione or harvestman, sometimes known as the other daddy long legs. It has no venom like spiders and only one body part. http://www.spiderzrule.com/daddy1.htm check them out at the bottom of this page glen

Thanks. It was appeared in Cambridge, UK.
Out of curiousity, do you know if they normally reside in the UK?
