Kale, Cauliflower, Leeks, Onion sets, Broad beans, Radish's, Spinach, Chard, Kohl Rabi, Pak Choi and there's always Turnips. I don't think it's too late to get another crop of cut and come again salad leaves in. Hope this is helpful. xx
I grow leeks to overwinter in the space vacated by the first earlies - pop up to your local garden centre for a tray of plantlets.
For some reason, I never have sown enough leeks in about April for planting out now (no idea why - there are about a zillion seeds in a packet, after all), and end up going cap in hand to Wyevale to spend a couple of quid on a carry-tray of about 300 seedlings, then end up giving half of the seedlings to neighbours.
I sowed another tray of leeks last week; or the week before - I know they won't be huge but as I have about 50 seed heads for next year's seed; it's better grown than stored.
You could sow a lovely crop of perpetual spinach that would last all winter.
All of the oriental greens are good now apparently, I'm just about to sow a load.

Please ignore everything I say, I make it up as I go along, not only do I generally not believe what I write, I never remember it either.
I plant winter cabbage (my greenhouse sown and grown) plants in the space left from the potatoes.. i plant 4 differnt varieties to last from november till spring. Just put my early savoys in last weekend and i dig up the next row will plant more.
In the last of my main crop tattie space will go next years spring cabbage (sown this week)
