I'm tending towards the crocosmia theory ... but whatever it is time will tell ... I'd leave until spring has sprung and then do some clearing away of the dead top growth and see what happens - there may well be some treasures there
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
3rd pic down are grape hyacinths. Rather invasive and too much leaf for me but some folk like them. Last pic is a hardy geranium of some type and worth keeping.

A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
Really glad I checked thanks everyone ? Think I might put a few of the grape hyacinths into an isolated pot but definitely need to clear a lot of them back, they're already EVERYWHERE! Eek

1. Tulips and possibly crocus?
2. Crocus and possibly some iris reticulata, and possibly something else as well?
I agree with Bob about 3 and 4.

I'm not sure we were right about one of the plants, it's started sprouting some odd flower kind of things
Spanish bluebells maybe ???
Yes, agree with Spanish bluebells for the latest pic. They're as bad as grape hyacinths for their invasive habits. I'd have 'em out.
