23 plots
A smallish site bordered on two sides by roads – Buckland Road and Buckland Hill – with views over the town and to the North Downs which are great.
The road boundaries have privet and mixed hedging which masks the traffic noise to a degree [only really noticed at peak times and with the odd boy racer!]. But allows us to hear the lively chatter of those passing by, particularly the children on their way to school which can be amusing!
The site is on a slope but there are no drainage problems for the top plots. Soil is good and everything seems to grow well. We do have a bit of a pigeon problem [the wood pigeons, which are so beautiful - one admires their daring] but netting works well plus the odd ingenious bird scarer.
All are keen allotmenteers, new and experienced, who share tips, produce and a love of growing.
The site has mains water supply, and there are a number of storage tanks. There are two entrances, one on each road. Parking on Buckland Road is limited to two hours on weekdays, but moving your car to a nearby spot allows another two.
