It's very near although it doesnt spread like that. Other than that,
the
leaves are the same,apple like, the flowers are similar and so are the
berries.
It doesn't spread like the pic.not at all. It's like a rowan,not more
spread than that.
Other than spread you might have identified it. Everything is right
except
the spread which is very wrong for my tree.





Is there any sign that it's had its crown raised?


No, absolutely not. Mine does not have thorns eother.

I have a very similar
tree with a low, spreading crown and I had to remove the lower branches to
make it safe to mow the lawn. It is still lovely, but less dangerous



What a pity you don't have a picture then we could all join in.
