Geocache Description:


Alfriston Apples were developed in Uckfield in Sussex, England in the late 1700s by a Mr Shepherd, and were originally named Shepherd’s Seedling / Shepherd’s Pippin. Renamed in 1891 to Alfriston by a Mr Brookes (possibly Charles Brooker) from Alfriston, Sussex, when he sent it to the Royal Horticultural Society as a sample, who suggested the name. In 1920, Alfriston Apples received the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Merit. Alfriston Apples were grown commercially in England until about the 1930s. Good Luck, email me for help, and Happy caching
