  It might be a mahonia, but I couldn't say for sure, sorry.

  Need a clear pic - there seems to be two stuck together.

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  Hi, thanks for your reply but I did just type in mahonia on google and compared and it definitely isn’t! Probably my first pics bad quality! Thanks for your input though! Much appreciated!

  It looks like a Holly Olive, Osmanthus Heterophyllus.

  Goodness, I couldn't make out any detail.
  
  Osmanthus heterophyllus leaves look very like Holly leaves.
  Osmanthus leaves are opposite each other on a twig.
  While Ilex aquifolium...common name Holly has alternate leaves.
