    Thanks for the quick reply. I looked white campion up and apparently they are very hairy which is not the case with this plant.

    Could it be a white phlox?

    Looks like phlox by the bud formation.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    Yep, definitely soapwort.

    Lovely to see, but very invasive. I started with one small plant, and ended up with it even growing in the cracks between the paving of my patio.image

    It has a sort of rhizomes which just keep growing.

    Thank you all for replying image It turns out it is Saponaria officinalis.
