It's a wild flower that's also called "fireweed"

There's some interesting info here:

That's a lovely photo, when we were young, my little brother used to call those plants "Bee flowers" because the bees love them.

Very difficult to get it right because of a fence close to the clump of willow herb. If I went back now the colour would be washed out. David.
