If anyone knows the name of this grass, I'd appreciate it

Sorry, but I am a dummy when it comes to all the different types of grasses!

Nice shot though, and is something else that I have been after for quite a while now.
Thanks for posting this Richard,

Nicely composed. Isn't it the common marsh reed, phragmites? If it's tall (4-6ft), that may be it.

Do you have any other shots or description of the grass? Without knowing anything of your local flora, it looks like Yorkshire fog (Holcus lanatus) to me. IDing grasses can involve working through some tiny diagnostic features, so if it is important I'd send a sample to an expert.
