Any idea what this hedge might be?

Pyracantha? Literally means fire thorn (pyro, acanthus) - thorny, fire coloured berries.

Yes, pyracantha

Looks like holly to me.
Any chance of stopping next time and getting a better photo?

Good year for holly around here, we already have lots of red berries on some bushes but it strikes me it may be a tad early?

Holly? With orange berries? No. It's pyracantha, as other pp's have already said.

Leaves are too small for holly.

Yes, I think pyracantha is right. Very lovely. Shame I don’t have a suitable location.

You can Google image search it.

It is very evil and prickly.

Evil? 😟

Great for keeping burglars out though!

You could, but it will unhelpfully tell you it's cotoneaster. Humans are still better botanists, for now.
