Allan Bell Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 YUP. They are endemic around here. In churchyards, peoples gardens, along road sides. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizbee Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Pretty sure it's not a Rowan (I've shot a lot of those myself). Best guess would be a variety of Cotoneaster, though by no means certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 A couple of years ago I had shot berries like this and spent hours trying to identify them. I finally just didn’t upload them. Mine were in the US, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 There is a useful free smartphone app "Seek" that many times can identify plants and animals by using the phone's built-in camera. Not always successful but never the less I've found it useful. https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/seek_app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) Plant.net says pyracantha coccinea Firethorn (fam. Rosaceae), that's only off a screenshot, but identification by leaf and fruit is in agreement. I think I agree as well- it even has the sawtooth leaf edge.
