The neighbour at the house identified the trees as morello cherries. Thanks for all contributions.

Thanks, that is certainly my favourite possibility.

Thanks again. I didn't know that eucalyptus could have red bark but the leaves look plausible. Perhaops I will make the assumption of flowering cherry and go from there. Thank you all!

Thanks to all for replying. I added a close-up of the main shrub I need to identify. It is the wood stem that looks like prunus, with its horizontal marks and reddish bark but the leaves are grey/green, even bluey and perhaps thicker than anything I might think of as cherry family. The flowers are from the solidago in the background and I have not visited the house often enough to see if it flowers, how and when. Regards.

Please help me identify these shrubs in the foreground that were dug up from my garden, without permission, by my tenants. I would like to replace them. The house is in Maidstone. Many thanks, Brian
