Can you identify this tree?

petunia100

It's about 15' tall, is deciduous, Is cover in white flowers in June and is highly fragrant. The flowers last for 3/4 weeks and has green leaves.
Any ideas please?

Edit: Now realise it is a shrub.

More info: The white flowers have 4 petals and yellow satamens.

Philadelphus/mock orange?

Umm 'how long is a piece of string!'

Can you post a pic - bark/leaf/tree shape?

could be--
White lilac
Eucryphyia
Magnolia
Prunus (Cherry)
Crataegus (Rowan)

Or could it be a shrub?

It could be an Elderflower tree have a look on internet for some pics

I was going to say a flowering dogwood like Cornus florida but that would be a shrub. But like westiea has said it would help to identify if we had a picture or more detail of bark, leaf formation etc

Similar, but mine only has four petals and are in small clusters.

I've got a photo on my computer now, but can't post it as I've tried image insert and it does not work.
Where can I find out how to post it?
