Update...
A new volunteer joined the group today with a brand new extending picking stick (much bigger than mine) so we were able to get more fruit than we would have, however, we still didn't manage to reach the fruit in the uppermost branches.
The tree is located in the front garden of a house converted into several flats. One of the tenants came out and spoke to us and was very friendly but was not at all interested in taking or using any of the fruit. I did explain to her that it was a very special variety, but she was nonchalant. Such a shame, I know many people who would LOVE to have this particular variety on their doorstep.
Oh well..... SEplentyfree wins again.
As usual the fruit was divided amongst volunteers, althoug the bulk of it was taken to be used at the Apple Day at Grow Mayow, which was a great success.
