The White flowers in amongst it look like Hedge garlic - Allariaria petiolata. They can gown quite tall about a meter but sometimes flower much shirted than that. Leaves are slight garlic/pepper flavour and can be used in salads.

I do sometimes have a nibble, yes. I had a hunch it might be some sort of brassica, looking at the flower, and it had a familiar look - vaguely remember seeing clumps of it around allotments - so I had a very small bite out of a leaf.
I was out looking for curled dock to try eating. Not very tasty to be honest. I did try some of the hedge garlic too, which was rather nice. But this horseradish plant tasted great, very fresh tasting and not pungent.
The flowers there that look like a brassica are Hedge Mustard as Butterfly says above ... which is a brassica and very tasty in a salad or sandwich when young

I did nibble the leaves actually; delish. But I can't stand horseradish sauce!
