About Newtons Apple Tree:
This “Flower of Kent” apple tree, which grows outside the entrance to Trinity College, was originally grafted from the actual tree that resides at Newton’s childhood home in Woolsthorpe Manor, Lincolnshire. Cambridge’s apple tree is an offshoot of the authentic tree now cared for by the National Trust, where Newton first saw the apple fall from its branches. To honor his links to the university and contributions to science, this tree was planted in 1954.
