What is this tree? About 3*4m tall, lollipop shaped, with bark like a
cherry, but the fruit is more like a hawthorn. I'll need the Latin name so I
can order it and get the right tree.

Could be a Crataegus like the previous poster said or it could be a Sorbus.

Sorbus suecica looks a little like that - here a picture for comparison.
