My plot is 10 rods and costs £24 per annum in London. I think yours is a little larger - about 12 rods.

Ours is 56'x18' classed a half plot. We paid £12.50 inc insurance & a key, we also have water on site. Tap is about 20' from our plot. We get it for half price as we are OAPs.

Thanks Ceres, that makes them a bit expensive compared by what others are posting. I'm going to be watching what others are paying with great interest.
