Thank you for sharing that with us!
That fruit looks a bit like hawthorn.

In our old garden we used to grow this delightful shrub.
The fruits are very cute.
Never tried to eat them.
Hope you track one down Greengage

Ah ha, 'ping'! The light has just come on! It's a myrtle. I had never heard of Ugni molinae.
