This is thought to be the Strigamia acuminata centipede (but may be its relative S. crassipes). Both are long, thin, red centipedes found mainly in woodland and native to UK. The former has around 40 pairs of legs and the latter around 50 pairs. It is on a white rose in a garden. It seems to have 2 mites accompanying it.
