We have 3 Gages all different, they have been in a number of years, have
grown well and flower well but very rarely set fruit, also in the fruit
cage with them are a Victoria plum and Merry Weather Damson which both
fruit well. plus the hedge rows around are full of Blackthorn. I am
struggling to see what if anything I can do to encourage fruit set

Oh dear, that's depressing :-( Last year I bought a
shapely very cheap little "Reine Claude" (in Tesco's)
and it's just about to open its first flowers
