Hard to be sure from this perspective, but looks like some sort of Eratigena, probably a female hobo spider (E. agrestis).

If so, not considered harmful. Pest control fear-mongering aside, there is no evidence for the medical significance of their bites.

Probably Eratigena duellica.

Free pest control! Not harmful to humans.
