Have to agree with janette, it sounds very much like and elder.
Had a look and the rowan flowers are long past, the berries are formed now.
When the elder flowers go to fruit, maybe we should try and make elderflower wine, maybe help the quiz along on a sunday night
he ho
It sounds like an Elder to me.
If so, you can eat the flowers - dip them in a light batter and fry - delicious.
Also make wine from the flowers, good for chest problems.
The berries can too can be used for cordial and wine... yummy !
