Noone I asked can remember seeing this oxalis here before (eg. my
grandma). It spread the last, let's say 10 years across all gardens and
places.
It is a US native. I am sooo sorry. If you could see all the terrible weeds
that we got from Europe, you would sympathize. ;-)

Ahh, found the original, under "White wildflower etc"
The OP wasn't talking of the British menace, the Pink Oxalis: sorry.
_O. corniculata_, though, isn't a N.Am species according to my source,
but a mainland European one, introduced in Britain and Ireland.
