    @Woodgreen - thank you. I did wonder if it might be astrantia but have never seen one so purple. Of course the photo may have altered the colour when printed. 
    Thanks everyone.

    Not that you have asked, I think the rose is Queen of Sweden.
    Oxford. The City of Dreaming Spires.
    And then my heart with pleasure fills,
    And dances with the daffodils (roses). Taking a bit of liberty with Wordsworth :)

    I have taken original pic and trimmed it...maybe this will help.
    Maybe this shows more clearly the ones I believe to be Cirsium rivulare atropurpureum.
    Sort of like a th    istle flower without any prickles.
    Perthshire. SCOTLAND .
