Does anyone know what this shrub is?

And that is a Chaenomeles japonica, aka Quince. Not however the Cydonia which is also Quince.

Thank you again Owdboggy!....never had one of these before...I did notice an old yellow looking fruit on the ground last year....but did not know where it had come from :-) I will google it...probably just a flowering variety...not edible is it? I don't want to be poisoned!

The fruits are inedible when raw but you can make jam from the fruits and there are lots of recipes on the internet for Quince jam.

The fruits are very definitely usable. I had Quince marmalade on my toast this morning. Indeed Marmalade was originally made from Quince, only the Victorians changed it to Oranges because they are easier to process.

.... called Membrillo here and eaten with cheese. Very tasty!

Thank you for all the interesting replies! I absolutely love Marmalade too....will be trying this if I get enough fruit!
