This is a very common plant on our acid Cheshire sandstone and an umbellifer that is fairly easy to identify. It is actually quite a small plant usually reaching 0.5 m maximum and always seems to start with drooping flower heads when in bud. The feathery leaves are also a give-away but finally you might try to eat the tubers raw or cooked which are supposed to taste of brazil nuts.
