The community orchard might include a fascinating historical 'apple trail' if plans come to fruition.

Apple expert Barrie Juniper (whose book The story of the apple is mentioned elsewhere on this site) has proposed varieties including 'Decio' (possibly Roman), the medieval 'Lemon Pippin' and Shakespeare's favourite apple 'Leathercoat' be included along with 19th century Oxfordshire varieties 'Hanwell Souring' and Blenheim Orange.

These and other varieties against a backdrop of cherry trees matching those once grown at Bryants Farm in Eye & Dunsden would make a fascinating and beautiful orchard.
