It's difficult to tell from the picture but it looks as though your Nan could be right. -
Could it be a Kerria? Was the picture taken a few months back as that is when they flower.Comment

Really need to see the flowers and a closeup of the leaves to be sure but I think its kerria too - probably Kerria japonica pleniflora BBC - Gardening: Plant Finder - Kerria

Mimosa is a really fast-growing tree - very common here. It flowers in february and has the most amazing perfume. Gorgeous.Comment

Well they're both yellow, but that's where the similarity ends.
