Ah, the Gaffney peach! It is one of the Wonders of Atlantia along with the 
White Tower or Storvik. Yes, it is a water tower. ;)

Granado (1599) has various recipes for peaches, including 5 different 
preserves and confections. He also has 2 recipes for peach pie. One is sort 
of a cheescake, whose filling is a mixture of  peach puree, various cheeses, 
sugar, and eggs. The other pie  (possibly one of the Italian recipes he 
plagiarized from Scappi) has slices of peach with spices, sugar and butter.

Oooo...any chance of getting the recipe for the cheesecake???  It sounds 
exquisite.
Actually, they both do...
