I found what appears to be a some sort of large evergreen herbaceous plant or possibly a shrub with long stems buried under a thicket of brambles and ivy. I took a photo showing what looks like dried up flowers at the end of a side shoot. Having cut all the main stems back I notice that near the crown the stems are 1 cm thick and coloured mainly red but also flushed with yellow. Anyone know what this plant might be?

Thanks for providing a link that works.
I think you will find that what you have is a form of Leucothoe

Thanks. I believe you are correct as someone else suggested this on another
gardening website where I put up the same photo. Never heard of or
encountered this plant previously. I have had to cut it back hard to 12"
stems as it was very straggly, so hope it will recover but don't think it
will flower this year.

Frank, could you please refrain from posting in HTML?
It is bad form for usenet and some readers don't decode it.

Thank you

The best choice is a news reader that can read but not post HTML.

While the world has moved on an HTML isn't really that much of a
problem to a decent newsreader , the fact that you post to a newsgroup
without bothering to read its charter, a link to which was posted as
recently as the 15 of last month where within it says

"Binaries
All posts should be in plain ASCII text. The posting of all binaries
(including, for example, pictures, html format text or code, "business
cards", software, word processor files) is not welcome. Such material
belongs on a web or ftp site, to which a pointer may be posted. "

and then go on to rudely expect others to adopt their ways to suit
yourself really marks you down as a selfish, arrogant, self obsessed
Git so typical of the ME First attitude so prevalent in society today.

To the best of my recollection, it is only the last day that your posts
have been visibly html - so if people with readers that can parse html
looked at your posts they wouldn't see it as obviously html.

Indeed, the post I'm replying to doesn't look like edited html.

However, the problem was the post you made with the vomit/diarrhea
background colour of earlier (the first in this thread). To a news
client that can parse html, it jars and looks pretty vile. Tastes
notwithstanding.

It is good manners to follow the group's charter - and also to try and
post so that, within reason, most clients can read posts properly.

I asked you perfectly reasonably and politely to follow standard usenet
etiquette and the charter of this very group. You obviously have no idea
how usenet is used and think you are above everybody else.

You have also chosen to reply in a rather arrogant and selfish way, so why
don't you take a nicely pruned rose twig and ram it up your posterior?

Regards
P.S. You'll probably be disappointed but I'm afraid I can't be bothered to
register your email address to any homosexual prOn sites, you'll have to do
that yourself.
Regards Mr B

Oh dear! You have just shown yourself up to be the **** that you truly are. But I already knew that anyway from your previous posts. Why you'd think I'm gay (which I'm not) has anything to do with it I'm not too sure. But please don't be concerned. I don't take offence at ****s. After all most can't help being the numbskulls that they are.

By the way I'm sure there's a good counselling service around in your area for honophobes.Try your local Citizens Advice Bureau hirst.
