A relative? taken in Madeira on a Lumix compact. Love the detail on yours - like it's painted.

Your first image is a Black & Yellow Orb Weaver, aka Black & Yellow Garden Spider (Argiope aurantia). The added web pattern is suppose to be more zigzag, and is called a stabilimentum.Spider

Thanks Nikonian72. I read that these Orb Weavers are in the south of England now having spread from the Continent.

Similar to their cousin Argiope spiders, the banded garden spiders are not known to be medically important. It is unlikely that bites would occur unless people handled a female with an egg cocoon in the web. Even then, the bite would likely cause no more discomfort in most individuals than that of a wasp or bee sting.
