The bees were buzzing on this tree. Can anyone tell me what type it is from this branch photo. A big tree maybe 40 feet high with the white blossom.

The flowers look like Elderflower, but I’m not sure as the leaf shape doesn’t look quite right.
 
The flower looks a bit like the Rowan I have in my garden, but the leaf is different !
 
Sorbus aria - Whitebeam. Could be a variety of it.
 
Oh yes, it is a service tree. We have just planted one but no flowers this year. I knew I had seen the leaf before!!!!
