It really was a piece of our English heritage, but the lure of money was too big (not my assumption, the words of the family who had held the land for years). Yay for you sparking off some apple chat - that's a wonderful thing you have done. Let me know how things progress. This week I bought Katys and James Grieve; they are gorgeous; even when slightly underripe! Hi Shauna,

This week I bought Katys and James Grieve; they are gorgeous; even when slightly underripe!

I think it is a real shame to see orchards sold off and treated like brownfield sites and bulldozed for housing projects. I recently left a note at my local allotment to ask for permission to test the varieties apple trees found on the allotment (South Devon). This has sparked people's curiousity and now there's all kinds of apple chat going on.
