Default identify please?

We are having trouble identifying a large shrub in a friend's garden.
All was well until the last Gardener's group visited the garden
yesterday and asked the name! Its leaves are very similar to a photonia
in make and shape but much paler and not nearly so red. the young growth
or maybe the intended growth is variegated white, yellow and green. The
shrub stands about 6 feet tall and as wide but knowing Sarah in whose
garden it grows, it won't be a normal run of the mill thing. I shall try
to get pictures if i can.
Growth is not suckering but does come from quite low down on the trunk.
I know you won't be able to give a definite identification but any
suggestions that we could look up?

Not Photinia of course
