Dear Margaret
Thank you for your request for information which is supplied below and
attachment.
1. Southampton City Council has 23 allotment sites (some are divided
into East/West) and there are waiting lists for all these sites. I have
attached the latest information accurate as of today. This shows how
many plots and the number on the waiting lists for each of these sites.
2. None of our waiting lists are closed. The waiting list for some sites
in the Millbrook area is decreasing as some plots have become available
recently but numbers waiting for plots on all other sites are increasing
slightly or the same.
3. There were no new allotment sites brought into use in 2009 but there
was an unused area on Weston allotments where ten new plots (2036 sq m)
were created, and grazing land was taken back on Muddy Bottom West
allotments and fourteen plots (3200 sq m0 created.
4. There are plans to open two new sites, enlarge an existing site and
clear another area in Weston Allotments to create approx 20 new plots.
I hope this is the information you require, additional information can
be found on the allotment pages of the Southampton City Council website.
Please contact me directly if you require any further information.
