Noticed this plant on waste ground actually three or four growing,unable to establish what it is.
Plant is growing very erect took three or four photos these are think about the best was taken hand held so trying to take into account the shakes etc.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction, not sure if its a wildflower
have checked an online site but unable to confirm it there.Could be a garden escape dumped at one stage by someone?

GEORGE.

Clustered Bellflower Campanula glomerata - native, but rare as a native, and also popular as a garden plant, so most likely a garden escape here :t:

It's pretty common on the chalk in the south.

Nutcracker /Aeshna5 many thanks guys for your prompt response especially confirming id,
had looked through three garden books that are sitting on my bookshelf but seemingly not hard enough. Have after your contact now spotted a photo. Wanting to try and progress with macro photos especially wildflowers but was bit concerned there first shot was completely lost on the id.
Really appreciate your help guys many thanks.
GEORGE.
