hi well i remembered that i took some photo's to try and help me
recognise some of the plants.
unfortunately i am such a novice that i don't know if i've got the
right photo.
i took a few foliage shots from some of the plants, so if when you see
this you think that it's obviously from another type of plant
altogether, then you're probably right.
i seem to remember it having 'nut-tree' type leaves so i think this is
the right photo.

hope that helps. i still don't recognise it by what's been said here so
far, but i appreciate your help and the lichen thing sounds reassuring.
thanks

Those leaves look like Hazel (Corylus avellana ).I,ve lost the plot on
this
one:-)
Not quite right for hazel (leaf not quite rounded enough) and he did say
he remembered the other bush having 'nut-tree' type leaves! But it's not
Hibiscus or Magnolia

Assuming those leaves do not belong to the tree then perhaps the tree/shrub
could be some form of Rhus--perhaps.
