Without seeing any photos, I can tell you that Methley is a variety that has been widely sold.  If someone planted it who was just an ordinary person who just ordered ordinary varieties from ordinary companies, it's very likely to be Methley.  I picked some from a tree next door to where I worked about 15 years ago, the tree died the next year from black knot.  The fruit was dark reddish and of course soft and juicy, typcial Japanese plum effect.  Donna
