SU9109 : Iris berries in the verge
taken 11 years ago, near to Halnaker, West Sussex, England
Iris berries in the verge
From research on the web, I believe that these berries belong to the "Stinking Iris" Iris foetidissima. They were growing in the verge beside the path just after it had departed from Mill Lane and was still following the route of Stane Street.
The Stinking Iris is alternatively known as "Gladdon". See a photograph of its unusually coloured flower here TQ7818 : Gladdon or stinking iris flower with ants, Churchland Lane

Stane Street
Stane Street is the modern name given to an important 90-kilometre-long Roman road that linked London to the Roman town of Noviomagus Reginorum, or Regnentium, later renamed Chichester by the Saxons.
Today the Roman road is easily traceable on modern maps. Much of the route is followed by the A3, A24, A29 and A285, although most of the course through the modern county of Surrey has either been completely abandoned or is followed only by bridlepaths.
