    A photo would help with identification.

    Loganberries are red and look  like raspberries only growing on a brier like blackberries.

    Sorry Tracy, there's something wrong with this site at the moment preventing photos from uploading, so we can't see the pictures you've posted.  It may work tomorrow...

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    My blackberries are ripening now so they could well be 'just blackberries'.

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    They could be loganberries I've  been picking them since mid June. Is the plant thornless.

    I think the clue between loganberries or blackberries is the colour of the fruit when ripe, I.e loganberries are red blackberries are black.

    I've been picking 'Autumn Fruiting' raspberries for the last 4 weeksimage.... so they may be blackberries. Everything in E Anglia has been weeks ahead of 'normal' flowering and fruiting dates this year - due to the very mild spring and warm early summer.
