If it's appeared out of nowhere, it maybe carex pendula - which most would consider a weed. But there are many similar-looking plants so see what others think.

Thankyou everyone for your comments. When does it flower? If it is an iris foetidissima xx I’ll wait and see what happens. Will it die Back over winter?
They are very useful for growing in difficult dry shade. Mine are almost a nuisance though, always seeding themselves, but they are easy to pull up. Yours looks young so it will flower next year.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
They are evergreen flower in mid-late Spring if my memory serves me right. Flowers are a lovely delicate yellow/brown, quite subtle but the seeds, when the pods split, are gloriously orange and last most of the winter ageing down to dark red
