The estate is believed to have given its name to the Ribston Pippin apple.

Ribston Hall is a privately owned 17th-century country mansion situated on the banks of the River Nidd, at Great Ribston, near Knaresborough, North Yorkshire.
This apple was grown in 1708 from one of three apple pips (seeds) sent from Normandy to Sir Henry Goodricke of Ribston Hall at Knaresborough, Yorkshire, and the original trunk did not die until 1835.
