Met a few neighbours, apparently our plot has been vacant 4-5yrs at least.
So surprising given that you always hear demand for allotments is so high, but perhaps people saw it and didn't want to take on the work. It probably took a tree surgeon not to be too daunted. :)
We were waiting 2years on the list. I was clear when I applied I wasn’t afraid of a bit of a challenge ;)
Aside from the digging and the amount of waste I’ve generated I didn’t see it as that big a job to sort it out...
