Another plant identity

I have bought a new house and noticed this plant coming through. I seem to recognise the foliage but I'm not sure what it is. I don't think its a weed any help would be appreciated.

    It looks like a hellebore but I can't be sure

    Think you're right, Ladybird4.  Looks like Helleborus niger, the Christmas rose.  

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    No  cairnsie, there wouldn't be. It looks right for the time of year.
