What is this?

It LOOKS like Hawthorne, and there's a limitless supply of it, BUT i can't find ANY thorns on the whole tree area (there's about 30 trees worth). There are little groups of red berries on the same tree if that helps.

Thanks in advance.
 
I'll compare the pic to our hawthorn when I'm at home, but I do know our hawthorn has red berries at the moment, and I've never noticed it being prickly when pruning (or at least, not compared to the brambles - ouch! :oops:)

Hopefully someone more useful will happen along soon.....
 
Hawthorn by the looks Gray. Very spikey. It's got haws (berries) and thorns. Young growth doesn't normally have thorns - that comes on old wood.
