I'd vote for Verbascum thapsus. Great mullein. As to whether it's desirable or not, that depends on whether you like it... and whether it's in a sensible place, given its eventual height. It's a biennial, so will die after flowering. (If that's what it is, of course...)
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

You may well be right, but our Verbascum thapsus always have really silvery fluffy leaves ... there are other verbascums with smoother leaves ... possibly a hybrid?

What do they do with all those plants...is there a medical use?
