  Looks like Polygonatum [Solomon's Seal] 
  Did it have little white tubular flowers in late spring/early summer? The tiny 'sprigs' you can see on the stems, between the leaves, are what the spent flowers look like. 

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  Could it be ginger?
  
  

  A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

  Agree with @Fairygirl. Pops up all over the place here,  don’t know how, but it does. 

  Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

  Berries and birds I think @Lyn
  Although they can sometimes 'run' too.

  Thanks for your help, yes we have lots of birds, never seen them with a dibber but they  are great sowers. I know it looks pretty much established but the wife (she's the gardener) has only just noticed it so can't say if it flowered.
