Ok, in order to help all those that can't see it I've put a copy of the
photo on my flickr page...

Those leaves don't look like Lonicera to me although the trunks
certainly
do.


Ay last a picture.
I would rule out conifer as the trunks have been cut back so hard and
have sprouted from the cut area,
I am inclined to Lonicera but not L. Natidia but the slightly more lax
form Lonicera Pileata


I am pretty sure that I have seen it. The leaves look rather like
a yew, which would also sprout from old wood, but I don't think
that it is.


Having had time to think, I'm wondering about it being a strangely pruned
Jasminum species.
Perhaps
J. auriculatum or J. mesnyi although there are a lot of leaves on those
stems.
