Question 7
Various trees are claimed to be "the" __X__ tree which
__Y__ describes. The King's School, Grantham, claims
that the tree was purchased by the school, uprooted and
transported to the headmaster's garden some years
later. The staff of the [now] National Trust-owned
Woolsthorpe Manor dispute this, and claim that a tree
present in their gardens is the one described by __Y__.
A descendant of the original tree can be seen growing
outside the main gate of Trinity College, Cambridge,
below the room __Y__ lived in when he studied there.
The National Fruit Collection at Brogdale can supply
grafts from their tree, which appears identical to Flower
of Kent, a coarse-fleshed cooking variety.
