    Cannot see detail clearly.
    Probably an early flowering Cherry...such as Prunus avium.

    It has the look of a type of Clematis montana,even the green leaves look similar,what a lovely spring surprise!

    The photo size is way too big for those of us with slow internet to load.

    I can't wait for the pics to come in but suggest Prunus cerasifera, always first here


    In the sticks near Peterborough

    Close up of the leaves, don't think it’s a clematis,   Several photos, all much the same Nut, and too far away.  Assuming the OP means this one? 

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    My guess is Prunus incisa 'The Bride' which flowers in Feb/Mar in some parts..

    Would Quince be a possibility.

    Thanks for responses . It’s not prunus Avium as I have that planted in my garden and that flowers later.
    its not clematis as that is a climber.
    i think prunus Incisa is best guess so far. Unless anyone has other guesses.
