I would start out with a guess that it is either a Lycopodium or a
Selaginella, or some relative of one.

Armed with those suspicions, I poked around the internet and found
this image. http://www.plant-
identification.co.uk/skye/lycopodiaceae/diphasiastrum-alpinum.htm
which looks a lot like your specimen.

Couldn't make that link work but I found this
http://www.ukwildflowers.com/Web_pag...e_clubmoss.htm

Obviously taken much later in the year. Sounds like it's fairly common in
the area so I'll look out for it later in the season.
Thanks
