Find out how to get an allotment

We welcome new members and have a waiting list. Currently the waiting time to get an allotment is approximately 12 months. Every applicant receives a personal waiting list number and will be kept updated by the Lettings Officer.

Our site is an exceptional one in many ways but we do wish to point out that running an allotment needs time and dedication, possibly a minimum of 6 hours per week. Some of our new lets are (regrettably) overgrown and need a lot of work in the first few months. Some media portrayals underplay this side and it’s well worth talking to current members to get a more realistic picture and advice. Or, do ask for a meeting with a Committee member on site to see what is involved.
