Merseyside, United Kingdom

I have just discovered that the tree in my garden is a greengage tree. I wasn't sure what it was as the fruit previous years has just been small a hard. However this year loads of fruit dropped off and was gobbled up by wasps who seem to love them. It was when i did a greengage tree image search I realised that's what they are. I managed to reach a couple (as they're all really high now) and they tasted lovely. Missed my opportunity now though as the ones i can reach have all fallen off and been snazzled by wasps. Do i need to prune it at any time?
