There were a number of common grass blues around but there's a bit of a black mark on the hind wing which makes me wonder if this is a long-tailed pea-blue although that part of the wing is damaged

When your original image is enlarged the dark mark looks to be a small area of damaged upperside wing on the otherside showing.
