This began to grow next to my pond last year. Can anyone identify it please? It doesn't have flowers, just these little things that look like tiny bottle brushes.

We call it pussy willow, but we recognise at least two kinds. It's a salix

Thank you both, it's rather pretty.

It is pretty - you'll probably find these furry catkins open up to produce yellow flowers. They tend to self-seed rather prolifically as you've found - it arrived unannounced, I think, from your original post. Just pull up unwanted seedlings when they appear.
