Default Help identify a plant

First posting here so be gentle with me!
Can anyone help identify a plant that is growing in our garden,
http://www.flickr.com/photos/21314696@N03/3784682659/ grows to about a
foot in height, is widespread in what was the previous owners veg
patch so I suspect is edible, I have tried a little and it tastes like
Sorrel, although the leaves are very different.
Has spread over a wide area, not too difficult to remove, but would
like to know what it is before we remove most of it. If it is edible I
will use it rather than compost it!!!
Thanks in anticipation
John
