Can anyone help with this one? It's currently about 4 foot tall and 2-3 across but looks like it's barely got started...

(not in my garden, btw, asking on behalf of others).
Thanks.

    The colour makes me think it's one of those "Goldcrest" ones LG.

    Thanks Kitty, that's given me a lead. Having had a look for close ups of the leaves of Cupressus macrocarpa 'Goldcrest' they look the right shape, but the branches also seem to be pale green when young. These ones are a red colour, so perhaps another Cupressus macrocarpa - will keep looking.
