No sooner do I kill it off, and scarify, it's back, and with a

Can anyone tell me what type of weed it is and how I can get rid of it
for good?
It is in a part of the garden which gets very little sunlight, is often
damp, and where the grass coverage is patchy, at best, despite me using
shady grass seed.
Any advice welcome
It's a liverwort - Pellia epiphylla.
It likes the damp. As long as that area stays damp, it'll keep coming
back. If you can improve the drainage, that will help.

Great. Thanks for that. Trouble is, it's in a shaded corner, so it gets little wind and/or sun. Other than the obvious (spiking, forking, etc...), what other methods can be used to improve the drainage?
Cheers
