Pirri-pirri bur, Acaena novae-zelandiae An alien from New Zealand. The bur stage comes later as the seeds form. It has clover-like flower heads, but the tiny flowers are not clover-like, nor are the leaves. I have only seen this in similar Surrey locations e.g. <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4971923">SU9167 : Plant in Swinley Forest</a>, although it apparently crops up quite widely.
