I know nothing about trees and this isn't in my book; can anyone help?

Many thanks, Laura

Nice clear pics I will stick my neck out and say it is an Acer. As for species, platanoides, capadocium? Who knows, have to wait and see. Any pics of bark or tree form would help.

I love all the fresh growth this time of year, it feels like winter has finally ended!

Yes! Brilliant, thank you so much. I looked up both your suggestions and found this picture ( http://www.keele.ac.uk/media/keeleuniversity/arboretum/treeimages/m-n/acer-negundo.jpg ) which is exactly right.

Thank you very much; and for being complimentary about my photos.

Would I hear a collective groan if I mentioned that I have just bought a house on 1.5 hectares of mature parkland (up to 200 years old) and the only things I can identify are the oaks and an apple tree....:stupid:

No groans from here, take good care of and enjoy it
