Is it black bryony ? Me thinks not

[BILLy]

Hi guys
Found this today, unsure what it is, the closest I've come to it is black bryony but the pics of those don't have the lopped bottoms to the leaf as mine do in the pictures, any thoughts welcome
Thanks
Bill

It looks very much like Arum maculatum, aka lords and ladies, cuckoo-pint and many other names.

That is exactly what it is. Lots of it coming up about now.

Does it grow near Ramsons, Lords and Ladies like the same growing conditions.

Yep side by side in my play wood. Along with other delights like dog mercury and paris herb.
