Hello,
Yes, it is a shrub; here are some pictures and links so that you can see what it is:

The wood coming from that shrub is very hard and was used to make bowls for a game named petanque which is played in the South of France. Nowadays we use bowls made of metal, steel or bronze.

I don't like playing petanque, it is too tiring! we have to walk and bend in a very hot sun for hours !
