What is this tree?

 Does anyone know what this tree is?

It was an established tree when I moved in years ago. I had to chopped back once about 6-8 years ago and looks like it needs it again.

Just curious to know what it is.

    A few more photos if you could Rosie, the bark, and the leaves from a different angle

    Is it evergreen? What are its flowers like? Berries? seed pods?

  • Hi Nutcutlet

    Just been back out in the garden and taking more photos.

    Its a deciduous tree. I think it has flowers but not for long. White flowers I think. There are a few berries on the tree at the moment.
