The shape of the leaf of the OP pic bears no resemblance to the arum
leaves.

And would there be Morning Glories with broad leaves springing up in
clumps in early Spring in a British wood??

The OP's picture wasn't really showing the plant he needs to identify at
a very good angle, but Arum maculatum *does* often have dark markings,
either spots or 'marbling' - I've got some myself.

Indeed. Stace (the accepted authority on the British Flora) says "leaf
blades appearing in early spring, often blackish-purple-spotted...".



Quite agree. My arum lily has also got black marked leaves and is
nothing out of the ordinary.
