    Yes, definitely looks like a weeping goldenchain. Even has same buds visible in third shot. Unless staked to grow taller forms a low mound. Since the inflorescences are pendent the weeping habit seems like overkill at flowering time.

    Definitely a Laburnum, almost certainly L. alpinum 'Pendulum'. The dull and drab autumn/fall colouring of the leaves is also indicative.
