Think you are right @richard.spicer.7906 . Old abandoned untrimmed buxus tend to look like this.

Don't think it's lonicera. Leaves look too big n thick. Have been wrong before though. There was 100yr old buxus in a part of the nursery that used to be landscaped gardens in 1800's. This looks very similar. That's what my guess is based on.

Could be Sarcococca it's common name is sweet box. It has very shiny leaves and grows in deep shade. 😊
