About this deal

Well-known alternative to Cox, recommended for less favoured positions. Fruit is Cox-like, but generally smaller, and more yellow. Flavour is good, but can be a little disappointing in some seasons. Again, our own experience is limited, but known to be hardy and disease free. October to January.Medium to small apple, crimson flushed over green base.Flesh is white, juicy and refreshing. Healthy and reliable, and agood keeper, in our experience. Small fruit. Recommended. Rob’s ones are mulched with large woodchips, mainly to keep the weeds down and beat grass competition. They are also liberally fed with cow manure, compost and other goodies. There were some good points - the food was beautifully presented, my salmon was in a delicious sauce, (would have liked more of this sauce) and the waiter there when we needed him but not over attentive The bill was 50% more than we usually paid for a meal in this pub/restaurant but unfortunately the overall quality wasn't

Wadworth’s brewery team brew a core range of beers and a minimum of eight seasonal beers a year. Farmer’s Glory has stood the test of time and remains the only one to be brewed every August in readiness for the harvest. It will be available in pubs as cask ale throughout September. Late September to End October. A cross betweenWorcester Pearmain and McIntosh, bred by .Medium fruit with partly conical shape, red/dark red skin with soft white flesh. Flavour is sweet, melting. At its best, the most delicious apple that we grow. Bred by the inimitable H M Tydeman. RecommendedAugust to September. Usually large,uneven-shaped fruit. Cooks to brisk, well flavoured froth.A reliable variety that often benefits from some thinning in late June. Wadworth the independent family brewer based in Devizes, Wiltshire has given its popular seasonal ale, Farmer’s Glory a whole new look. First created in 1984 to help farmers to celebrate their bounteous harvests, the beer has been growing in popularity ever since.

We have been voted ‘Traveller’s Choice 2023 and in the top 10% in the UK’ on Trip advisor, and we are rated ‘Excellent’. Dine with confidence! our restaurant has consistently been awarded a ‘5 Star Hygiene’ Rating year after year. We always use only the finest ingredients and where possible always source locally. A Laxton apple, from the early 20th century. Cox crossed with Wealthy, small apples and prone to scab, but good flavour. The picture above shows my ever-vigilant organic friends’ collection in full fruit over summer. Their bushes are above waist height, planted into the ground, and mulched with sphagnum moss for weed suppression and moisture retention. Sport of Alkamene; a modern variety bred in Germany. Compact habit, healthy tree with medium vigour. Retains some of the Cox flavour (Cox is a distant parent). Fruit is pleasant and uniform, but we have had lots of canker and scab problems.Mid-August. Small, yellow/red apple with intensejuicyflavour. Skin can be affected by scab, but flavourunimpaired. Yes, a Cox cross. This time between Cox andLaxton's Superb. As the name suggests, a late apple, and a good keeper. Apple has a Cox-type colour, slightly more conical, and tends to be large fruit. Mid-late September. Dark, crimson apple with distinctive ribbed shape. Can suffer from superficial scab damage to skin. Along with other thorny things like totara and gorse, cattle will avoid them unless fed hard, but horses or goats will not blink at the odd spine, so you do need to protect them. Our restaurant has recently undergone a full refurbishment, and now offers a modern, cozy and comfortable environment for you to come and enjoy our fine Indian dining experience. We offer a wide variety of dishes on our menu and cater for all, from small to large parties, to weddings and any special occasion.

The main disadvantage of these plants is that they are very thorny, similar in shape and pointedness to the native matagouri or ‘wild Irishman’ scrub so you will get many a punctured finger trimming twigs and opening up the bushes with secateurs. This kind of pruning is a good idea though for helping the fruit to bask in those valuable sugar-yielding solar rays. The traditional ale at 4.4% abv is brewed with Pale Ale and Crystal malts and has a hint of citrus to create a refreshing perfectly balanced harvest bitter for real ale fans. The Wadworth team of brewers use Fuggles, Challenger and Goldings hops to build the flavour. Mid September to late October. Golden, conical apple with firm, cream coloured flesh. Local to Lancashire and Westmorland. Early October to November. Medium to large, slightly russeted fruit with distinct eye and flattened shape. Flesh is crisp, holds shape well in cooking. Can also be used as a sharp eater, especially as season progresses. Healthy and reliable, vigorous tree. Recommended.The lunch menu is mouth watering; the evening menu looks even more spectacular. Apparently word is getting round � they had a full house on Saturday night and had to turn fourteen punters away!

The old people always seem to grow top prize-winning gooseberries. My 84-year-old neighbour Kate used to entreat me to see her hydrangeas, large seedling avocado trees, and finally her prize gooseberries. They were small bushes, carefully tended, horribly thorny, but covered in glowing red fruit the size of plums, nothing like the old, tiny, green, hard sour lumps of my childhood memories. Late August/Early September. Deep red over yellow base, medium fruit with sweet, juicy flesh. Flavour has strawberry hint. Reliable cropper, lovely attractive fruit. Modern apple, bred for disease resistance in organic systems. Flavour is sweet and quite conventional. We have not found it to be as disease resistant as we hoped - scab and canker mainly.October to December. Small, russetted apple with attractive skin and prominent eye. Intense flavour, with dry, nutty flesh. Originated in Ireland in early 19th century. We have found it a little scab-prone, but otherwise trouble-free. Mid-August. Deep red flush over pale base, flesh white, juicy, with a melting flavour. At its best, one of the best flavoured early apples, with a flavour that cannot be experienced inany commercially available apple.Fruit is medium/large. Susceptible to canker, however.
