I'm delighted to find a picture of this rough old apple - as a child during the war, our family were given "Codlin Apples" from a local farm and I remember the distinct shape and pale colour of them - I began to think they were a figment of my imagination. Despite their being described as suitable for cooking, we children definitely used to eat them raw. We lived near Dunstable at that time.
