It looks like one of the salvias, maybe pineapple sage?
If you crush a leaf, does it smell of anything?
Just been out and rubbed a few leaves but no smell
That reminds me very much of Pellitory of the Wall, a nettle relative. Strange place for it to grow though, it could well be something else entirely!
Most of the salvias have a smell, so count that out.
In fact most herb leaves have a smell if you crush them.
That's exactly what I was thinking of Landgirl, but for the life of me I couldn't think what it was called. It grew all over the front garden at our last place.

Pineapple mint is variegated. pineapple sage has small green leaves and red flowers.
Those little brownish bits are flowers, or at least buds.They don't have much flower power
