Andy,

I missed most of the original thread, but did anyone suggest a Liquidambar?
Very pretty, the variegated ones have a lot of interest.

I've got a Robinia Pseudoacacia frisia, been in for about 8 years. It's a
nice tree
but it takes a lot of wind damage. snip

That is why we tend to advise people buy Gleditisa triacanthos 'Suburst'.
It doesn't have the same wind damage but does give the most wonderful
colour.
