Welsh Oak Longhorn Beetle - Pyrrhidium sanguineum
These beetles have a distinct preference for a particular type of wood, in this case the decaying wood of oaks.
In the UK it is locally common across Wales and South East England and sporadic and generally scarce elsewhere north to Southern Scotland but it seems to have increased in range and abundance over recent decades and so should be expected from any suitable habitat.
