Yes very near A45 straight road to Br um.

When I had my allotment the site was nearly derelict dut to uncertain future of the site.The land is owned by a building company.

However we now have lots of new plot holders and the parish council have helped to clear the site,re skip and clearing pathways so it is a much better place to be,they have even cut down a derelict plot next to me so I am very pleased about that.

What is your site like?

the site is quite a large one over 100 plots I believe, I took mine over a year ago , full of bind weed and couch grass, with a hill of dumped things at one end ie large road sign .....this is about to be covered so i can forget about it untill I'm ready.. at the other end are delightful plum trees warwickshir droopers!!!
There is a bit of a problem with the local inhabitants badgers and munjak deer (very beautifull) but will eat anything my mound of chives nibbled down to half and inch ,
but its coming along a marathon rather than a sprint!!! :) :)

we had a new chairperson last year and she has really shook things upn , had derilect plots cleared and let so lots of nebbies as well , \i think they plan to reclaim unused plots to let as there is awaiting list .

Yes it is great to see derelict plots come back to life.

We have around twenty plots not sure exact figure,so very small site.no committee,just suggestions made to parish council and they have been pretty good so far.

Wonderful to have the plum trees,lucky you :)
