Weed id help please.

[Mrs Ava]

I'm sure you all have it on your allotments....but it is a creeping weed with strawberry like leaves, long black tap roots.  Not buttercup.  Any ideas?

    I know the one you mean, called cinquefoil I think. The roots can be very hard to completely remove.

Have a look on this website which shows both weed flowers and leaves
