Shrub ID please

It's a willow of some kind -possibly goat willow.
Is it planted in your garden, or has it just appeared?
It's the time of year that we often see goat willows springing up - and they aren't very desirable garden plants.

I think it's Fothergilla. An unusual plant with lovely Autumn foliage

Might very well be thank you very much, I shall wait and see if leaves match when they come out, can’t remember at this moment what they are like.

It’s been only in leaf for two years! This is the first year to have a flower.

@yorkshirerose has got a good ID too. It does look like that 

If you wait a week or two @flopsy_fudge, and post a pic of the whole shrub, that will help too

Would like to see more pics as leaves open.
Not sure flowers fit with Fothergilla.
