Could it be Chervil? Though I think the leaves may be more finely cut
than the plant you are describing.

Do you know, I think you've just cracked it! The photos I can find
look remarkably like the stuff I have been pulling from under my
beans!
Thank you so much!

Definitely Chervil: I read in one of the website that more mature
leaves turn a shade of bronze, which I described as purple. Not sure
how it ended up in my garden!
Thanks again!

I wouldn't eat it until you've identified it definitely including
letting it flower and seed. One of the weedy umbellifers, for example,
does the leaf colour change thing, and along with the herbs like chervil
there's a lot of poisonous plants in that family.
