Didn't quite look like E. plantagineum, so wondering if vulgare?

I think it is a big growth E. plantagineum - doesn't seem to have basal leaves which would have helped with Id

Unfortunately I didn't manage to capture any basal leaves, but meant to include what is now the third image that shows some leaves slightly above the base, which may help.

Ciaran has got a good eye for it that's for sure, and a better memory than this old bloke (me), who even forgets to post a key image :-(.
