The world-famous original Bramley Apple tree could soon have a new custodian.

Nottingham Trent University is in discussions about becoming the new owner of the tree which is located in a private garden in Southwell.
The university is keen to try to prolong the life of the tree – which is dying due to an incurable honey fungus infection – and to safeguard its important heritage for generations to come.
