I am trying to find out the type of tree that is in a site where we are building a house. I attach a photo of it and a close up of the leaf.

Yesterday I had a lovely gooseberry bush laden with fruit. I wanted to pick them but it was wet and misty so I waited. Today, only 2 berries left. the tree has been stripped completely overnight!! there are no intruders, its a fortress but I have a visiting fox! Could he be the culprit? if so why did he not steal the next bush which has sweeter berries? And the raspberries? Amazing.

I've got a rough ditch boundary at 1 side of my property. It is mainly blackthorn, briars etc and looks messy and fairly bare in Winter. I have managed to level off the top and front and would like to try and cover it somehow - as it cant be removed or replanted etc . Looking for some vigorous climbers that will cover the ditch and make it look more interesting. Something evergreen with flowers..and little maintenance as I only want to have to top hedge each Summer going forward.
