Allotment availability
All of our Council-managed allotment sites are currently at full capacity, and there are no vacant plots available at this time.
However, you can add your name to our waiting lists. Some site waiting lists are also full.
When applying to join a waiting list, it is realistic to expect a wait of around 2 to 3 years before a plot may become available.

Allotment gardening is somewhat of a British institution and we're more than happy to provide quality sites, as is a statutory requirement. A great way for families and individuals to grow their own organic food, they're also wonderful areas for socialising, enjoying local wildlife and providing:
- low cost food
- organic fruit
- home grown flowers
- recreational space
- healthy activity
- social space
- wildlife habitation
