GROUND IVY

A lively blue clump of low growing flowers may be Ground Ivy.  
Not related to ivy but it does spread by creeping stems.   


These were growing in the skatepark field just next to Filnore Woods.

.
Apparently the leaves used to be used to flavour beer 
until hops were introduced to Britain in the 16th century
