Apologies for poor quality of picture - my phone camera is rubbish.
I have about seven of these popping up in my border - I have no idea what they are!
I'd appreciate any help in identifying them; I've tried Google and various apps with no success.
Many thanks.

Fat Hen, Chenopodium album. Birds like the seeds
In the sticks near Peterborough
It looks to me like Chenopodum alba ... an annual weed also known as Fat Hen, Lamb's Quarters and other names.
It is sometimes grown as a vegetable. http://www.ediblewildfood.com/lambs-quarters.aspx

Fabulous! Thank you so much; I have lots of visiting birds in my garden so they can enjoy them.
Thank you also to you Dove :-)
