Starting our Lost Trees walk on the edge of Stalybridge's centre, we follow a route into the town centre and work our way outwards and discover some fruit-bearing trees growing in built-up and sometimes unexpected places and learn about different uses for the fruit growing on them. We talk to Rob Muir from Abundance Tameside who shares some cider making tips, as well as introducing Sam Bolton from Greater Manchester Ecology Unit to discuss an interesting, possibly very old apple tree.
