Any Ideas what this is please?
Does anyone have any idea what this plant might be please?
If you could point me in the direction of the family I will try and look it up. There is loads of it near where I work so would be very handy if its edible. Thanks

It looks a lot like celandine, which isn't edible.

I agree with Emma. Its celandine and not edible, sadly.

Thanks for the responses guys - I did think it would be way too lucky to be edible as there is loads of it.
My search for good food continues (at least until all my own plants have grown)
