We have availability for allotment plots – full plots and half plots.
Please get in touch if you would like more information: allotments@nassington.org.uk
Our allotment licences encompass current legislation and are broadly in line with the recommendation of The National Allotment Society – thenas.org.uk
The National Allotment Society summarises the overarching law regarding allotments as:
- The Tenant shall use the plot as an allotment garden only as defined by the Allotments Act 1922 (that is to say wholly or mainly for the production of vegetable, fruit and flower crops for consumption or enjoyment by the Tenant and his family) and for no other purpose and keep it free of hazards, e.g. broken glass or scrap metal etc., and reasonably free from weeds and noxious plants and in a good state of cultivation and fertility and in good condition.
- The Tenant may not carry on any trade or business from the Allotment Site
- The Tenant shall have at least ¼ of the Allotment Garden under cultivation of crops after 3 months and at least ¾ of the Allotment Garden under cultivation of crops after 12 months and thereafter.
- The maximum amount of the Allotment Garden allowed to be hard landscaped e.g. patio, internal paths etc is 20%.
