There is a whole grove of these trees growing across the easternmost of the two parallel footpaths here. Thanks to Daan for informing me that this is the red-berried elder (Sambucus racemosa), related to the black elderberry (Sambucus nigra). Racemosa (from Latin) indicates the clustered nature of the berries / flower, likewise nigra idicates black.
