hi sid. i'm quite new to having an allotment, and loads more people will post with a lot more knowledge than me, but i'm sure cabbages broccoli sprouts etc dont like manure.

Hi Sid, I think as long as you firm them in well cabbage would do ok in manured ground .. I usually grow my caulies this way as I find it helps retain moisture.. Only things I wouldn't put in fresh manured ground  would be roots as in carrots,beetroot and parsnips etc... But make sure you firm them in  when planting .Cheers Jim.
