Naturally flat, I believe.

Hi Matt
I know Yorkshire Fog pretty well. I query this ID. the plant here was flat rather than upright. I had a feeling when I saw it that I hadn't seen this species before.

That's fair. I have undone my confirmation. I was a bit uncertain on my ID at the time, but couldn't think of anything suitable at the time. Looking closer at the arrangement of the spikelets, perhaps an exotic Poa would be a more suitable suggestion.
