Can anybody please identify this little beauty. It's growing on a hillside at Danebury hill in Hampshire among Speedwell, Herb Robert, Buttercups, Nettles and grasses. It's about 1 and a half to 2 feet tall with hairy leaves. The flowers were small, only about the size of my little fingernail.

Have you more photos. With leaves? That's too close-up for me, I don't see plants like that
In the sticks near Peterborough
It looks like Nonea (Nonea pulla).
Hi Hewitt&son. Possibly one of the figwort family but not sure.
I think its Hound's tongue. Cynoglossum Officinale.
I think Fritillary has got this one indentified for you. A star for Fritillary!
Think you've got it Frit

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Foolishly I only took this close up. I tried a plant identifier online but all I could remember about the entire plant was that is had hairy leaves. I'll do better next time.
Well done and thanks fritillary. You're a star! Case closed.
