  I also think it might be a willow.  Doesn't look like a fruit tree of any kind.

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

  Yes looks like Salix caprea (Goat Willow) to me - as has been said they seed all over the place - unless you have a garden of several acres with room for a large wildlife area I'd recommend pulling it up.  It's not a fruit tree.
