Do you mean bilberries? These are related to cultivated blue berries. I haven't heard of wild blueberries but we used to pick wild bilberries years ago.

They are not the same (genetically) but similar. Bilberries are very small.

Too late this year.try next July and august at Wymingbrook.

Anywhere where heather grows is likely to have bilberries as they like the same sort of soil. Moorland areas in general but yes, you are too late for this year. Apple and bilberry pie........yum.....
