| | | Unidentified young leaves
Keep looking at these and thinking I should recognize them....but I can't think what they are 
Growing at the edge of dampish woodland, photo taken today and ID help much appreciated!
The stems and underneath of the leaves had a really rough, almost bristly/hooked feel to them.  |

I would say Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum).

It looks like one of the wild parsley type plants which are about to spring up all over 
Wild carrot or parsnip maybe? |

I would say a member of the family Ranunculaceae. Possibly creeping Buttercup.

I am sticking with Herb Robert......
The leaflets of Wild Parsnip are much more entire than those seen in this picture.
Creeping Buttercup leaflets are three-lobed and on a shorter stem.
The leaflets of Wild Carrot are more lanceolate than those shown and are three-pinnate, which these are not.

Thanks for all the suggestions....I found another photo and realised that they are the young leaves of Upright Hedge-parsley, Torilis japonica.....  |
