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
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. Id X and Y
