Anemone nemorosa (Wood Anemone)

It is seen plentiful in the woodland areas especially and sometimes intermingled with Sweet Woodruff and Bluebells. Occasionally you may even be lucky enough to spot it on the open pavements were it has established itself in shallow grykes. And what a spectacular sight it can be just like the photos I have taken below.
