Just over a pound a week, not the best price but a very cheap hobby.

I will be paying just over £50 for three 5 rod plots, water on site, plus canteen, shop and toilets nd good company - as Ace pointed  out, it will be about a pound a week. Not bad considering that you can't buy a lot for a pound these days.

Tin shed, i dont mind paying my pound a week but it seem unfair that for my £56.55  i only get 6.5 rods
so i'm paying a little under 3 times as much as you

sorry for posting feeling a little sad about this

There certainly seems to be a very wide variation of rents around the country and it must seem a bit rough when you are on the 'wrong' end of the rent scale. I have been amazed when I have read how much/how little some of us pay.

Hi Tin Shed
sorry i was having a bad day
I would pay twice as much  for my patch even if i dont manage to grow anything
i love it there

Went to pay my dues last week, £11 for 5 rods with water, nowt else, but nowt else needed ;D and allotments sec for local parish was bemoaning the fact that he couldn't get some chap to give up although he does nothing. Apparently he stores stuff in his shed. Cheap rent or what!
I did suggest he gives him 3 months to sort the plot or go, (there is a waiting list) but none are as deaf as those who wont hear (especially a suggestion from a mere woman ::) ;D). Sadly I have no voice at the parish commitee meeting as I live 3 houses outside the parish, even though I pay rent.
