    Do you know the variety at all, when does it flower? Summer flowering ones, get prunes after flowering, earlies flower on "new wood", OH scares the life out of me, when the pruners come out, but everything seems to be all the better for it.  If you dont know the type, I think you have nothing to loose to cut it back, give it an autumn and spring feed, see how it goes.
