it's a Flowering Currant - 'Ribes sanguineum' - and if those are white centres on the flowers, it's called 'Pulborough Scarlet'. It's a lovely species.

I have this (it is among my pics). The scent should be "distinctive", too!

It is Ribes - flowering current. It brings back happy memories of my Gran's garden.
