  There is a mock strawberry (potentilla) if it's not a wild strawberry.
  

  
  

  The middle plant is celedine.

  We have moved from Cheshire to Cumbria.  The farmhouse garden is magnificent, nestling in the boundaries.  The planting is varied and traditional in many respects, but it is on a slope.  A few acers set off the emerald green pastures beyond.  
  
  Any ideas?  Thank you.
  
  I will be carefully lifting out and replanting the strawberries.

  I would lift and dump all of the clump but some people like celandine, it spreads too far and too quickly for my liking.  The weed that is posing as a strawberry will tangle and spread around as well.

  If you try to dig out celendines, the little bits of root grow quicker,I spent years trying to eradicate them, especially in the lawn,now I don't bother.They will be die back and disappear from view soon
