  Might be a bird cherry Pete. Prunus padus. 

  The little point at the end of the leaves, the flowers and the red stems look right. Apic of the whole tree might confirm

  And I think the votes are spot on - thanks very much. They are very common around Droitwich and each May I think that I must find out what they are. This year I've done it!!  Thanks again and have a nice day
