Type of tree? Some type of maple tree or shrub?

I can’t figure out what type of tree this is any help would be greatly appreciated

Not a maple with a leaf like that, think the Canadian flag, but not an ash, or tree of heaven, or any of the others I can think of either. Do you think it is a native or an ornamental?

With those winged samaras (fruit/seeds) it can only be a Maple. Try Amur Acer ginnala or something similar.

Thank you for your reply. It looks similar to that type of tree but not exact

Or laburnum, or sycamore, or any sort of ash. Maybe a Box elder?

Being simple and opposite-leaved it rules out Ash or Laburnum. Sycamores over here have fuzzy bur-type fruits/seeds. At least the Platanus species.

Yes, I had wondered if they really were simple leaves, I thought it was only lornicera which had the opposite leaves, and it's not that, maybe I am wrong. Look at this picture of Box elder leaves https://www.ecrater.co.uk/p/3827862...MI-ZKUgYyr-AIVjdrVCh0Hjw21EAQYAyABEgLXd_D_BwE. The general habit of the tree looked right as well.It's not a tree I am familiar with and I am not sure where it grows normally, but that might not be helpful, of the 350 species growing wild in Britain only about 35 are native, I guess the same sort of human interference happens in the US though you haven't had as long at it.
