  That doesn't sound like hawthorn or prunus

  I wonder if the 2'' is what I meant by a a cluster of flowers, as in hawthorn.

  I've seen a few today too, on trees proper like, on the road and in people's gardens. Yet not one of mine has decided to give me an early surprise

  Hi NewBoy, when we've all finished rambling on here

  I think the answer to your question is not really rare, especially with such a mild winter,  but not that common.

  I haven't got early blossom due to haircut but several are well into leaf

  Hi all, are these what you saw Newboy?

  

  Flowers:

  

  Anyone able to ID?

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
