Golden pyracantha?
What size of leaves, what location, and did you see the flowers?

Leaves 10-15 cm x 1 cm almost willow-like in rosettes; green front, grey
backs. The berries 5mm+ diameter are lemon yellow and cover the bark on
the
stems as if they are growing from the bark itself (and masses of them) I
stumbled on these bushed today (flowers long gone) on the banks of the
Tyne. I suspect they are planted rather than native in situ. Bark shiny
red-brown up to 1" or more diameter.

No.
Skinny willow-like leaves.
No thorns.
Smooth, shiny bark.
VERY YELLOW berries stuck to bark.

I thought possibly Sea Buckthorn (Hippothae), but I thought that the
berries of this were pale yellow.
