Looks to me like apple mint but there are so many mints now, you'd need an expert to smell and taste it to confirm. It grows wild here in the lanes and in a lot of the grassy and neglected areas. Wonderful smell when mowing.

@polb,..yes i would agree with it being Apple Mint 'Mentha suaveolens',..i started collecting different species of Mint,..friends wanted some now i am left with about four species,..Apple Mint,..Variegated Mint,..Spearmint,..and Water Mint,..beautiful scent on a sunny day.
I have strawberry mint that does not taste of strawberries, ginger ditto and Moroccan too. They do tho have different leaves and slightly different tastes and uses. Moroccan goes on tagines, couscous, tea. Ginger is good with gin and tonic or gin and dry ginger. I've made mint jelly with our wild apple mint and have yet to fins a use for the strawberry as it's new.

Apparently you have to keep type of mint separate as they sort of cross contaminate each other. I'm sure Monty Don mentioned it in a recent Gardeners World programme.
Apart from the rampant wild one we've found here I grow all mine in pots to keep them under control and I tend to group the pots together in a bright corner but out of direct sun. Works for me as they all have different foliage so make a good group.
