Cardiocrinum giganteum .......
....... otherwise known as the Giant Yunnan Lily. I presume this is the seed pod ..... it was lying on the ground, a victim of the high winds, in the St Andrews Botanic Gardens. According to Wikipedia this is the largest species of any of the lily plants. The plant produces beautiful trumpet-like flowers on stems about 2 inches thick and 3 metres tall.
The Internet is rather intermittent here ..... frustrating in the extreme! I'll comment when I can.
