Anyone recognise this small tree please?
It is approximately 15 to 20 feet high and covered with lichens. It has
small blue/grey berries on it, which are mostly pip with a very thin pulp.
The pip is very hard and firmly attached to the thin flesh.

It looks like a Damson plum tree. Some of the Google images look similar.
Perhaps lack of water has not allowed the fruit to swell to its full
potential?
