    Wild plumbs possibly. Try downloading plantnet, works well for me. Just ran the image past plantnet as I forgot you can upload from the gallery!!! it's suggesting 72% Briancon apricot, the next nearest at 10% is plumb.

    Be nice if they are something edible mate. Got a decent crop there. Get yourself a cheap suction packer and stick them in freezer

    Anyone know what these are?

    Google lens keeps trying to say apples or plums but it's struggling with scale - cherry plums maybe?

    Seem to be the more purple colour when ripe and ready to fall, the colour in the tape measure photo on the tree.
    Cherry plum.

    Back to the original question, round me there's blackberries, raspberries, damsons, red currant, strawberries, sloes. Every one of the little bastards ends up infused into brandy, gin or vodka. Blackberry brandy is immense, just needs a bit of sugar

    We used to do Sloe gin. Not good for me now though

    Tell a neighbour what you think they are, say they’re delicious and that you’ve picked some for them then just keep an eye out for a ambulance
