My initial thought was a Sorbus but the leaves aren't right. could you add another photo of the whole tree please. What sort of height is it and how is it growing

99% sure its Cotoneaster salicifolius, but a pic in daylight would be helpful if that's not the one. Google it to check

Thankyou both. I think cotoneaster salicifolius is the right one. I can't take another photo because it is not in my garden and I can't go to get a better picture.

Drat Bamboo, I thought of Cotoneaster and then discarded it! Good you spotted!

C.salicifolius isn't that common, so the size of leaf probably threw you off...

Thank you for the 'get out' :)

I would a said Cotoneaster 'Cornubia' as it the most common variety.

I grow C. cornubia, and the leaves on that seem just a bit smaller/shorter than the ones in the photo Jimmy, but maybe it is
