    Aqueligia or thirlictrum (that's a total guess on spellings) but going on size in plump for aqueligia, it's very tricky to tell the difference till there much bigger

    Fab, thanks everyone. Thought I'd better check before I dug it up & pleased I did now! Am i right in thinking its self seeding so will pop up wherever it likes?  :)

    Not 'thalictrum' @Wilderbeast ;)

    Thalictrum aquilegifoilium have similar shaped but much finer leaves.

    Hi Fairygirl despite being a very amateur gardener, though extremely enthusiastic, im still better at it than spelling !!! My old teacher Mr Deltrie would definitely agree 🤣🤣 I can't tell the difference between aqueligia and thalictrum till they bigger
