Hi Peter,

It looks like a young Collared Sparrowhawk which is moulting from juvenile 
to adult plumage.  Unlike the Brown Goshawk the Sparrowhawk doesn't have an 
immature plumage stage.  The tail looks square in the first couple of photos 
(a Sparrowhawk character - but one needs to be aware that a Brown Goshawk 
with moulted centre tail feathers can have a squared tail).  The other good 
character for Sparrowhawk is the long, slender, middle toe which is not that 
clear in the photos.
