These are Spanish Bluebells (Hyacinthoides hispanica), you can distinguish between them and the Native Bluebell Image as they are taller paler and have less scent. However the most distinguishing feature is that they have flowers all round the stem whereas the natives have flowers on one side only and tend bow down on one side. http://www.nhm.ac.uk/nature-online/british-natural-history/survey-bluebells/bluebell-identification/index.html these were in Pedlars Wood Nature Reserve Image
