It is Red Deadnettle (Lamium purpureum). Marsh Woundwort is taller and flowers in the summer.

@tiggrx I've just entered it into the database... Thought this was interesting... "Young plants have edible tops and leaves, used in salads or in stirfry as a spring vegetable. If finely chopped it can also be used in sauces" Have you ever eaten it?! 😳🌱🍽
