WHITTINGHAM  ORCHARD

Whittingham Hospital was built in the last quarter of the 19th century.  Its orchard which we help to maintain still contains over 200 trees with 18 varieties of apples and 3 of pears.  We have replaced some of the lost trees with trees of similar varieties.  The hospital was self-sufficient in fruit from the orchard from October to May.  The following are the varieties to be found in it: 

APPLES

Alfriston Annie Elizabeth Bramley's Seedling Crimson Bramley Early Victoria Edward VII Ellison's Orange Golden Spire Grenadier

Howgate Wonder Keswick Codlin Lane's Prince Albert Laxton's Superb Lord Derby Monarch Newton Wonder Scotch Bridget Warners King

PEARS
