An ancestor of the cultivated apple, the crab applis is a common thing to find in woods, heaths and hedgerows.
It has small, hard fruit you can forage for in August. They will be too tart to eat raw but are great in jams and jellies. You could also use to infuse vodka or gin with lots of caster sugar for a golden licquer.
