Where was it, it looks like it wouldn't stand the cold?

Laburnum?

Thanks for the help. From searching Sophora tetraptera can confirm you're right.

Growing in Exmouth, Devon sheltered by larger tree next to it

Plenty colder. It's the wind that seems to get them but they grow all around the shores of Lake Taupo.
