Default Apple wood for turning

The message
from John Rouse contains these words:

Some time ago I mentioned that I had some applewood from an old apple
tree. I have recently cut off another of the major branches, and so I e-
mailed those who responded last time, but only one person replied, and
he was too far away. So if anyone wants some goodly chunks of apple wood
for turning, and can collect from North East Derbyshire, bring your
chainsaw.


Indeed if these gales go on, I might have an entire tree to dispose of!


Please! I could certainly do with a long piece of thick wood, and if it
has a bend in it, so much the better. It's for a gunstock to take a big
flintlock barrel, so if you do have a good length, please don't cut it
into little bits!

I should be going from Norfolk to Cheshire fairly soon, and I usually
go: Norwich, Lynn, Newark, Mansfield, Chesterfield, Buxton, Macc,
Knutsford.

Going anywhere close?
