Default Help Identifying tree/shrub?

Hi all,

Can anyone give me a bit of help identifying this tree/shrub in our
garden - been here a few months and still not managed to identify it?
It's currently about 10ft tall and has small reddish/brown berries on
it (had small white flowers earlier in the year):

I was wondering if it may be some type of privet - but being relatively
new to gardening, the only privet I've ever seen has been hedges with
small leaves. Is this it's more 'natural' form - or is it something
completely different?

Cheers,
Colin.
