Singer Sally Goldsmith takes us down to the vegetable patches which have inspired her music

You would never, in the past, have associated an allotment with a posh development of new flats.

But a London developer IS touting nearby allotments as a selling point and around the country thousands of people are waiting five or ten years for a plot.

Sally Goldsmith has an allotment - she's also a singer songwriter and she spent much of last year trailing around talking to people working their bit of land.

The result is a CD and touring show called Plotters, which celebrates life on the vegetable patch.

Clare Jenkins accompanied her up the garden path in Sheffield and met some of the allotment fans who have inspired her work.
