Please can you identify

Hi,

If anyone can identify these two trees, please let me know what you think they might be. I'm on a trip to Cardiff and saw them in a garden in Penarth. Many thanks.

First one could be a sorbus, or could be a robinia pseudoacacia.  Can’t quite see if the leaves are rounded or pointy.

The other one I’m struggling with - flower looks a bit viburnum like, but leaf not right. So could be a well pruned whitebeam, sorbus aria.

1. With golden leaves I would suggest Robinia pseudoacacia Frisia.

2.  Looks like Sorbus aria...common name Whitebeam.

The top photo looks more like a Honey Locust tree, Gleditsia Triacanthos ‘Sunburst’.

Agree the second photo is a Whitebeam, Sorbus Aria that has been pruned back quite recently.
