    Sorry no piccies, as I was out waiting for a bus.
    Tree was in a graveyard, Seeds were hanging clustered in bunches of between 2 to 4, green golf ball/small orange size.
    When opened, the seed looked like a very wrinkled blacky/brown walnut. Definately not a Juglans.
    Any ideas anyone?:scratch:
