I'm strictly taking a guess as unfortunately this photograph does not give us enough info to make an ID.

Despite being a potentially troublesome weed, Amaranths have a long history of human cultivation, variously described as a a "super food", ancient grain (seed harvesting), and nutritious Spinach substitute.... But obviously it doesn't belong in a Nature reserve... Link of interest:

Ok, Thanks Barb, I read through the various comments and discussion for your previous sighting of this Amaranth sp. Interesting to see that the location is almost exactly the same. As I wasn't 100% sure that it was a weed, so I left it in situ. I will go back and remove the plant off site. Will try to get most of the seeds, which were already mature and spreading around.
