It's hard to say who the owners re. I own one which I use as an orchard for cider making, but I rent the one next door. It belongs to a woman who lives in Oxfordshire who inherited it from her husband. It had belonged to his father many years ago. I pay her £35 a year for its use but there's no water supply. However, I have a well on my own plot so I get water from there.

Several users have just occupied overgrown plots and used them. Those plots are owned by someone, somewhere, but unless the owner turns up and chucks them off, there's nothing to stop them. Some of the overgrown plots do have local owners however, so be unwise to occupy them.

When I say 'overgrown' I am talking forest, in some cases. My rented plot was covered in 12 year-old ash trees up to 10" in diameter! Not to mention brambles as thick as broom handles, nettles, bindweed etc.

Think I know which plot this is, being used as a 'cider orchard'. I noticed someone had strimmed it when I was up earlier today.

Hi Im just wondering if anyone on here knows the owner of these allotments? Or owns an allotment at Warminster Road? I'm currently thinking about buying one and just wanting to know abit more about them. Are you allowed chickens and bees is the big question. Any help would be great. It would be nice to meet another owner for a chat if that's possible? I only live next to the sportsman pub cheers Aron.
