Description
Coulton Mill is first mentioned in 1230 in a land deed with Byland Abbey. There has been an orchard here for several hundred years. Old trees have had new heritage varieties added to create a Yorkshire Heritage collection with American, seventeenth century, cider and Victorian kitchen collections. The newly planted varieties are only two years old but there are some fine specimens of Cockpit.
