I would agree with that! Something enjoyed eating the leaves.

Steve, as long as the habitat is damp some of the time, Marsh Ragwort will cope very well.

I don't think you actually do . . . . I agree with all the above - Senecio aquaticus and Dorts' comment is spot on - I can see a sedge, Carex flacca possibly ? in shot as well, which adds to what the habitat, on clay, is probably like at least for some of the year
