If it's looked like that since spring 2015, it's dead or as good as. Maybe you could get a shoot somewhere but it won't be a thing of beauty again. It will just sit there making you feel bad. Get it out and plant something that will like the soil and position
I have developed a gardening philosophy that accepts that nothing lives for ever. I like the changes, introducing something new, it livens up the garden. Hanging on to something that is over just prolongs the agony.

Ahh thank you.
Last year there was that one green shoot with the flower and the rest remained as brown stumps.
So sad as it was an absolute beauty in its former days.
Worth doing as Verdun says, but I fear the worst.

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Thank you

Thank you, yes I do feel bad as know it will take years to get another one looking as good as this one did back in the day.
