Looks like Crataegus x lavallei. It's a fine small tree that really
should be more widely grown. The late spring/early summer flowers
are followed by very showy red berries and glossy foliage takes on
very rich bronze and red shades in autumn. Even the bark becomes very
attractive on mature specimens, so it has something to offer
throughout the year.

Thanks. I guess it was the late-flowering that threw me - even the
plants round the corner that I've got down as Crataegus prunifolia have
finished flowering, never mind the common hawthorn.

Now to wonder what it's doing on a country road side.
