It may be peach leaf curl, a fungus. This link may help. http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/joomla/smf/index.php/topic,16136.msg166857.html#msg166857
Definitely Peach leaf curl.
Thank you both :-* not sure about covering it though,it's a bit large ??? but at least l know what l'm dealing with and perhaps have a go treating it.
