Dad kept a hollow one planted in Victorian times going by filling the hollow with wire-reinforced concrete.

I now have an Espalier one on my allotment, but lack the huge brick Elizabethan cellar dad used to store the apples in.


We rent an old farmhouse; no cellar but cooler rooms. We sold some of the bigger ones at market.
