Is this wild garlic ?

Any ideas what this could be ?  It smells of garlic when digging near it, but the leaves are narrow so not sure.  Have it down by the house and in our woody area.

    Looks a like three cornered leek / onion weed, and that smells like onions/ garlic.  Expect I can't see the green stripe on the petals.  Perhaps there's a version without?

    It's wild garlic peanuts, quite leafy and has a mild garlic flavour nice to cook with as well.

    Allium triquetum, 3 cornered leak, is the most likely but there are other white alliums and the pics a bit blurry.

    Allium ursinum, ramsons, wild garlic has broad leaves
