Hi,
Is anyone able to identify this flower for me?
It was found in South Wales:

Thanks.

Hello Forestelf. Looks like some kind of Hypericum, but I am sure someone will come along to tell you which one

Thanks,
I'm taking it to be St. John's Wort now. Thanks for your help

Yes, St. John's Wort.

My guess would be Perforate St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) due to the structure of the petals (the presence of acute, lanceolate sepals to be more precise), but I'm no expert.
