Agree with stone on first one: that's a Maple species (Acer sp.) of some sort, perhaps Acer pseudoplatanus. Note opposite arrangement of simple leaves. There are more than a few Maples that can grow in Northumberland. Check for parent trees nearby.

I disagree with stone on the second one, since it also has opposite arrangement - but this time pinnate compound leaves. It cannot be a Walnut or Ailanthus altissima, because those both have alternate arrangement of pinnate compound leaves.

Your second plant is an Ash (Fraxinus sp.), maybe Fraxinus excelsior. Once again, Northumberland is probably home to more than a few European species of Ash. Those prominent and black terminal buds should be a clue to a final ID.

@Silversurfer likely knows these trees intimately...

Agree with Viburnum Valley.

1. Is known in UK as Sycamore.....Acer pseudoplatanus...see my pics 1-3.
Pics show the black spots typical at this time of year.
Tar spot is a leaf spot disease caused by the fungus Rhytisma acerinum. It is seen most commonly on sycamore,

2. Fraxinus excelsior. Common name Ash.see my pics 4 - 8

Yes, Acer pseudoplatanus to be exact. Whistling
