Foliage looks more viburnum-y than spirea, so probably that @Pete.8 The summer spireas aren't quite flowering here yet. Bit of weevil damage too - they like viburnum
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
Yes, that's what threw me. Plenty of Spireas in flower round here and most viburnums seem to have finished flowering. I've seen Hawthorn flowers that look almost identical, but wrong leaves.... Be interesting to find out what it is.
Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
I initially thought cotoneaster too @Hostafan1, but the leaves looked very 'soft', if you know what I mean. Perhaps @Silver surfer will be able to confirm or offer other suggestions
I just looked at some other images of the cotoneaster, and it does look like that, so you're probably right Hosta.

Good enough for me. We'll go with that! Thanks guys!
It's bordering a wall on a public walkway, so I couldn't even chap the door and ask 😂😂 @Hostafan1 a lot of the council maintained bushes round here do seem to get severe haircuts. But they all seem to have bounced back.
Great for bees though. In quiet moments, when cotoneasters and pyracanthas are flowering, one of life's great pleasures is just standing there - listening

Super red stamen.
Only hesitation is height...only 1m...normally grows very tall.
Maybe a baby.

Viburnum...opposite leaves.
Cannot think of any which have red stamen.
I guess the over zealous use of secateurs might explain the height
