The village of Dymock, located very close to the joining of the Three Countiers – Gloucestershirte, Herefordshire & Worcestershire, is a very fruitful place. Apart from having a plum named after it it has also given its name to a Perry Pear, Dymock Red AKA Thurston’s Red and an Apple Dymock Red. All three varieties are suffixed ‘Red’!
