Our site's waiting list has hit zero and we are likely to have a couple of plots coming up in the very near future. If you are looking for a plot send me a message! I am the site secretary.
Our website is www.granvilleparkallotments.org.uk. ;D
Grrrrr @ so close but yet too far petrol wise. I live in Walkden/Worsley . It would cost me around £1.80 each way, times that by 4 visits a week = £14.40 per week!! Would love a plot but maybe a little closer to home.
I was soooooo tempted that I put in directions for quickest route etc. thats when it told me the cost! Grrrrrrr and double flippin GRRRRR!! :( :'(
That is a shame Stopp! You are right that accessibility is the most important thing though!
Would a bike be practical for some of your journeys Stopp?
The route via motorway was just over 10 miles probably more on A roads. That's 20 miles there and back and as I haven't ridden a bike since I was 12 ......... my bums aching just thinking about it lol :P (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-fc/moon.gif) (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php)
That is a bit far!!
My plot is at Mossfield Allotments, Flixton Road, Urmston, albeit it runs from Flixton Road to Bowfell Road, my plot is Bowfell Road end. I am told that there is a waiting list for Trafford Allotments as we speak in June, there is a waiting list at Mossfield Allotments, they are all full until October 2012, even some have given up full plots to make more use of them as half plots.
