Around 11mm in length. Could be a false widow? Has similar colours to what I've seen of them.

I would guess this is A. Ferox. False widows tend to have a round and shiny body.
That looks pretty accurate actually. I was thinking it lacked the round body but didn’t know of anything else to look to. Thanks for the response.
Glad I could help!
Yep its A.Ferox aka Black Window Lace Weaver, there is maybe 3 types of Lace Weavers in Ireland Amaurobius ferox, Amaurobius fenestralis and Amaurobius similis.
