Not the best images sorry, lost a bit in trying to reduce them.
Tree in Culzean Castle grounds, so could be from anywhere in the world.
I have seen ones like it in NZ, but again could be from anywhere

Sadly I couldn't make anything out from them. Not too good on conifers and even worse on exotics, but looks interesting.

I would first compare against juniperus and chamaecyparis

I did wonder about juniper, but the leaves look scaly, or is that just the picture suffering from reduction.

If it might be a British tree, then it could be juniper. That has berries not cones.

This definitely calls for a return visit and a better look!
