unknown plant

I have recently taken retirement and have more time to spend working in the garden  and whilst cutting back a shrub I came across this plant growing underneath. It looks like a cultivated plant rather than a weed but I have no recollection of planting it. I plan to dig it up and to find a home for it in another part of the garden but would like to know what it is. the larger leaves are 13 cm x 7.5 cm.

    Viburnum tinus would be my guess image

    Yes I would agree. I've got some coming up away from the original plant. Maybe from the roots of self set from the berries.

    My Viburnums don't suffer with those beetles either. Perhaps they haven't discovered some plants yet!
