A Shropshire apple pressing event has been hailed a success by organisers.
This year the pressing day took place on Sunday, September 24.Anne Skinner, secretary at the village hall, said the day had been a success."Fortunately, the weather smiled on us, and it was warm and dry throughout the day, which saw folks come from near and far to help make the juice," she said.
"The apple harvest appeared to be rather mixed this year, with some people reporting bumper crops, while others had less apples that usual, but the day remained busy with apples arriving throughout the afternoon and everyone got stuck in, helping on the scratter, or pressing, sieving and bottling the juice for cider making or drinking fresh.
