Curveball!

[RobRainford]

Surveying along a line of plums and then a couple of planes. This fella was sat at the end. And has me puzzled. I reckoned some sort of conifer from the bark but the twigs and leaves confused me. Very spreading pendulous form. About 15m spread but only 5-6m high.

 

Three books showed not a lot. I reckoned a yew but couldn't get set on anything.

No, ignore that. The leaf says Pyrus salicifolia but the fruit is wrong:confused1:
