Looks like a Cymbalaria, don't know which though. How on earth did it get on
your wall in the UK?

I agree with Bob, it's a Cymbalaria....looks to me like Cymbalaria muralis,
commonly called Kenilworth Ivy. I've seen it come up in some pretty odd
places, so I would think if a few seeds somehow got into cracks in the wall
and it was getting enough moisture, it might grow there quite happily.

This is interesting (from Wikipedia)...
"This plant has an unusual method of propagation. The flower stalk is
initially positively phototropic and moves towards the light—after
fertilization it becomes negatively phototropic and moves away from the
light. This results in seed being pushed into dark crevices of rock walls,
where it is more likely to germinate and where it prefers to grow"

Doesn't explain how it got there in the first place though.
