Galls were 8-10 mm across, on leaf stalks. I cut some open but they were empty.

Thanks @WendyEM .That’s the object I thought was possibly dead because it was very inert when I touched it. Will do.

there is a Chrysomelid - Leaf Beetle in the first shot which you can set up as an additional sighting. It is facing downwards and you can just see one antenna

The last two images are of sawfly larvae and unrelated to the galls in the first two images which may have been caused by a midge (or other fly) wasp, scale insect or other gall forming species
