Many thanks
I'm assuming it's a wild flower, not a garden plant. My first reaction
was campion, but campion doesn't have clusters of flowers like that,
and the flowers don't look quite right. I'm puzzled, unless it's a
campion relative - alpine catchfly, lychnis alpina, which it might
well be. Images here https://tinyurl.com/yblpfvsg
SRH will be along shortly under his new alias to tell you what it
really is!
Valarien maybe?
