    Beech hedge, i suspect it is the beech. The leaves match.

    Not beech, might it be some sort of "flowering cherry"?

    It looks just like the suckers that our purple-leafed plum sends up from the roots (sometimes quite a distance from the tree).
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
