Allotment Group Lose Court Fight
I really hope they appeal. Using allotments for housing should not be even considered.
My first allotment was closed by the Parish Council - but they were renting the land from the Church Commission and they increased the rent. I lost a year trying to cultivate a previously unused and impossible plot about half a mile from my house (the first allotment was 2 minute walk) before I was offered my current plot about 5 years ago.
Think I might check out the Allotment Association web site to see if there is an appeal fund.
