I think it could be Columbine, (Aquilegia). There are some stunning varieties, but I have the dark purple, and double pink, (Candyfloss), in my garden. They self seed at the end of the Summer, and are rather difficult to keep to one area.

Thanks Carole, a bit like those little grape hyacinth things, they have spread from the top end of our road and are now all the way to the bottom

Yes Carole is right Aquilegia or Granny bonnett.

Really pretty love self seeding flowers. They are usually more robust. we have what I call pink shamrock which grows every year despite getting trimmed at times by the mower.
