It is a Berberis sp. not sure which one.

Maybe Berberis darwinii - Nepal barberry
Think that was the same species which was about 3 metres high and near the carpark. Removed about 2 years ago and replaced with a grove of Allocasuarina littoralis

looks as if this is what it is, particularly if it has been seen there before, though perhaps better wait until the flowers appear

Seeing as there are no native Berberis spp.,I think it should be removed before it flowers.

When I was doing some research I came across Berberis glaucocarpa which seems like a better fit - not too sure though cause there doesn't appear to be any records of it naturalised in Aus.
