How much is a plot?

ours is £10 per year, with unlimited water access.  bargain.   

Sloegin, I'm on the lotty you mentioned, unfortunatly it's the only place to go, i live in bangor, my name is down for council lotty, I am 54th on list (that's about four of our life times in waiting).  I would recommend getting your name down for a council plot near you, simply phone your local council and ask for person in charge of lotty's, they will give you all  the information you need.  If like me you are way down the list then you have to go private, and the first year can be expensive, if you want more advice pop down and talk to some of the allotment holders, i'm number 11.

Good luck

My plot is 2400 SqFt. we get all the water we can use and some great advice from those who have been doing it for ever!

All for £24 a year -Bargain!

Thanks, I don't understand how the one's in Ards are so expensive?? I'm happy enough growing stuff in pots for the time being. Getting a greenhouse in the Autumn really looking forward to that. This site is great for getting an education!!

  Still, wound'nt hurt to have a chat. You never know what might come of it. 

Blimey, that's expensive radiohead - our council charge £13.40 per 100 sq yds, with water supply, doing a quick conversion that would make yours about £6.40 a year.

Whereabouts are you? If you put it in your profile others will find it usefeul.

Hi DD,
I'm in sussex........they are new plots,i'ts a big site...180 plus plots,rabbit and deer proofed,I guess the council have invested a lot of money,but we are just glad to have it,there are many people who have little to no chance of getting an allotment.

I pay £60 per year, it would be double that, but the parish council pay the other bit, our allotment association found a field to rent and they pay half the yearly rent, saaved them the hassle of finding land when 30 families in our village got together to demand plots!!! Pricey, but worht every penny, that's for a whole plot 4 metres wide by 40 metres long -
