Sorry to hear about this. It is so upsetting when someone invades your special space.   I do hope that the police catch them so it will not happen again.

Well it made the headlines in the local rag and the local MP's got involved now.

Shocking news. I know it easy to say, but don't let the b*****ds grind you down and ruin the enjoyment that people get out of the site.

Now another report of mindless vandalism

ARSONISTS went on a wrecking spree – torching 10 allotment plots on two different sites just minutes apart.

Seems an endless spate this winter.
I hope this does not lead to a big decline in allotment use again.

So sad to hear this horror story - in our area the police seem helpless to do anything.
I've experienced theft (mega) and sabotage of Blueberry Bush and it's soooo distressing knocks the stuffing out of you it took me quite a while before I found my 'mo jo' almost walked away but so glad I didn't.
Hope police in your area are more successful.

More sheds on another site down the road were set alight last week, our local MP sent us a letter saying how he'd felt that the police, council and park police ( who I've never seen ) have let down the allotment holders.

As the others have said.

I agree with all of the previous sentiments.  Fortunately we haven't had anything to worry us other than strong winds blowing the lotty shed down.
