Lovely picture though Mike.You may know milkmaids under a different name as they are also known as Cuckoo Flower or Lady's Smock. Botanical name is Cardamine pratensis. I just read something that said people in Cheshire called them Milkmaids but then we knew them as that in my childhood and I was raised in Kent.
It's a plant of boggy ground; I used to call it codlins and cream.
