What is this?

I found this little creature sitting in the middle of the path at Cawfields Quarry.It was totally unafraid of me or any other of the 12+ folk who were walking back and forth.In fact it let me touch it without running off and I suspect that I could have picked it up if I hadn't been scared of hurting it.

I'm thinking it was a harvest mouse but does anyone know for certain.
