COPPED HALL “APPLE DAY” - Sunday 11th October

The beautiful Copped Hall mansion is once again hosting it’s ‘Apple Day’ this Sunday, which is part of a national annual celebration of our apple orchards and local distinctiveness initiated by Common Ground in 1990. It is a way of celebrating the variety and richness of orchard fruits in linking particular apples with their place of origin and hopefully ensuring that they are not lost.

The Copper Hall Trust invite you to come and join in the fun, play some traditional games, help with the juicing and have your own apples identified (leaf and stalk attached) by our experts from the East of England Apples and Orchard Project team. There will be a large display of apples from the Essex and Hertfordshire counties and you can taste before you buy some of the delicious different apples that will be on sale. There will also be Morris Dancing, refreshments, sales, cakes, lunches, bar, trees to buy, and more.

Gates are open from 11am to 4pm. Entry tickets £3.50. Entry to mansion £3.50. For more information about Copped Hall, please click here.
