silverbirch

Markyate Allotments and Gardens Society £10 a year, or £7.50 for a medium plot or £5 a "little one" (We've never quite got the hand of poles and things) + £1.75 for the Allotment Society or whatever they are called. 

Water is paid for by the parish council (we assume) as there is a meter but we've never seen a bill.  There are about three taps on the site of 50+ plots.

I would point out that we rent from a farmer, not the council.

Cross Lane Allotments, Sacriston, Durham.  Rent £16 (rising to £18 in March) including water.  1 tap to every 4 allotments.

Drove Lane allotments, Sleaford, Lincs.  £40 per year for full plot, including water, taps at regular intervals.  Lottie society costs about £1.50 p.a. but not sure what it actually does apart from get you 10% discount on rent for members.

No loos, no shop, no security, no police, even when we do get vandalised & broken into, and set alight in fact  >:(
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened
