I've seen something similar on our maple trees in Maine. It could be a viral disease or a fungus, but happening so late in the season, it may do no harm. The trees will probably be ok next spring.
In the U.S., our state univesities have a plant disease specialist on staff. You might inquire if you have a counterpart there, who can diagnose and suggest treatment, free of charge.
