This looks a neat garden.
What types are the big shrubs and trees at the end ?

Hi TT ~ In the left hand corner there is a large Syringa’ fountain’ under planted with Sarcococca ‘confusa’ going to the right next is Ribes ‘sanguineum’ Hypericum ‘hidcote’, Rrunus ‘laurocerasus’ then perennials 2 Juniper communis ‘Compressa,’ Pittosporum ‘tenuifolium’ and a Ceanothus ‘trysiflorus repens’.
Behind is a fence with trees growing the other side Rhobinia, Betula, Ulmus 3 Thuja ‘plicata’ half of the fence is covered with Hedera helix ’pittsburgh’ The retaining wall is made from old sleepers I got from work. The border is about 40 ft long and 4ft wide.
Unfortunately last summer I lost the Syringa and Ribes, they have been replaced with a large 15ft Prunus avium ‘Plena’and Corylus avellana Contorta
