Seconds into the documentary we noticed the spectacular apple arch that we made for Heligan back in January. The structure was made from mild steel bars which were cut and bent by Devoran staff in our workshop and then delivered to site to be fabricated by our sub-contracted welder Alan.
The arch replaced a previous version which had become too small for the numerous visitors, especially when in full bloom. The new wider and taller arch will soon be covered in apple branches, just like the original one was.
