I'd welcome some thoughts and opinions, please, as to the identity of this Euphorbia photographed this morning at the side of a suburban lane in Bristol.   |

?Euphorbia stricta? How long are the leaves at the base? |

After some research, I reckon this most closely matches Coral Spurge, Euphorbia corallioides, a species apparently fairly frequent in gardens. It's a plant I've never seen before, though, and I can't find that many decent photos online.
Opinions? |

E coralloides has woolly leaves: those in your pics are very shiny. |
