Looks like a Cinereous Tit.

The bird had a very marked white eye brow

It is a Cinereous Tit. Appears to be a juvenile, given the slightly yellowish and scruffy appearance.
The white brow may be an individual plumage abnormality or may be a temporary plumage problem (e.g. because of poor food supply while in the nest?)
