    No 1 looks like field maple.

    Wouldn't like to guess at no 2.

        If you've got those 2 in a hedge, it's probably one that's been planted using a 'native mix', and I'd guess there could also be Hawthorn, Hazel, Guelder Rose, Dogwood and Buckthorn.

          I did wonder that - there seems a mix of various things so you are most probably right

            If you go walking footpaths on Rothschilds' lands, look out for Cherry/Mirabelle Plums in the hedgerows. They were historically grown in their hedges, and included in many native mixes used in their hedgerows planted about 25 years ago, providing good foraging (if they don't cut them every year).
