    Can you take a more close up of the leaves? I think I can see slight serration on the leaf tips. If so, it's more likely to be a Euonymus Japonicus or Ilex Crenata shrub.

    I think that looks more like a Euonymous too. The tiny flower buds also look like one of those.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Thanks for posting some further photos. I agree with Fairygirl. It's a Euonymus Japonicus.

    I took a new picture today. The shrub has some sort of berries

    Yes, my Euronymous has those red berries too. Mine is a golden shade too! Yours looks positively festooned with berries. Have you seen any birds eating any of the berries?

    Oh no. This shrub belongs to neighbours living on a different street

     Definitely Euonymus, I have the berries in my Christmas wreath on the front door.
