Apples. Anyone Spotted Wild Trees Around S6, S10 And S8 Please

Recommended Posts

Hey,

A friend and I are after collecting some apples this Saturday to have a go at making cider. have a few wild trees in mind, but perhaps not enough.

Have any folks seen wild apple trees around, that perhaps are not good enough as eaters but ok for cider?

Preferably S6, S10 or S8 areas please

Thanks, may have a look there for windfall apples. Don't want to go and strip a tree bare if it's a community orchard. 

Apparently cider requires 20lbs apples per gallon.

Can people refer to areas rather than postcodes. 😡

I just can't understand why they refer to postcodes, for over ninety years the areas designated names have been used, then students arrive and change things.

There's an Apple tree growing at the bottom of Myrtle Road, it's full of apples but that's S2 !,  Heeley.

At the left end of Buttermere Rd there's a tree up on the bank. The apples are quite sweet.
