Sorry the link doesn't work
It's a Californian Poppy
it's not ranunculus, that looks quite different http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranunculus
It's a Welsh poppy...they do self-seed like weeds! :o)
ditto for the Californians, robinia - my garden is full of seedlings just like this one!
I thought Poppies were Red.
but the californians have feathery leaves don't they?
Definitely a Welsh Poppy.
Perhaps mine are indeed Welsh poppies then - I didn't plant them so they don't have a history, they just appeared!
Californian poppies have a different centre to the Welsh ones, they are a slightly darker hue too.

Wow, thanks for the answers guys, 'Welsh' it is then, must be hardy critters to exist in a baron wall.
Kindest regards Otto, in blusterous West Cumbria..
So that's what they are! They come up all over my garden, and are so deep-rooted as to make digging them up a pain. Fortunately, I've found that Roundup does the business.
Meconopsis cambrica same family as the Himalayan blue poppy
