I saw another plant today that I don't recognise. It was fairly open in habit and looked a bit like a young magnolia (was about 3-5 feet) but then I saw the amazingly long thorns on it. Any ideas?

I think Longleaf is correct

it certainly matches on the flower front. Were the leaves 3 lobed?
if it is one of its common names is Japanese bitter orange.

I wish I can see the flowers up close, but it could be Crataegus Monogyna (Common Hawthorn)
