Participants have to drink a glass of scrumpy\, before running down the hill\, do some apple bobbing\, down a shot\, then the winning contestant is the one who finds the golden apple in a trailer full of sawdust\, and walks away with a prize of £100. \n\n \nThere will be lots of other activities to take part in\, such as axe-throwing and archery\, or you could try your hand at the timber identification competition or hammer in the nail challenge\, both of which are free to enter.
