The Wyken Pippin was a variety of apple said to have been raised by Lord Craven from a continental seed and planted at Wyken about 1700. It has been known by other names such as Gerkin Pippin and Pheasant's Eye. A Wyken Pippin tree grew at the rear of the pub at one time.
In 2010 the name was changed to the COVENTRY OAK. This lasted only eight years before it was refurbished and reopened again as the NEW PIPPIN on Friday 14th September 2018. | |||
