Mountain Ash - Sorbus Aucuparia

 
This is one I found in Longford park. The Mountain Ash is a small to medium sized deciduous tree, with a fairly opened domed crown. It is often planted as a town tree in squares and along roadsides. The leaves are compound and pinnate, consisting of 5-8 pairs of toothed leaves, each up to 6cm long.
