Allotments are left by councils to run down, I don't know why they do it just that they do, there was about three or four rows of them near my home and some were always kept up but as the others were left one by one and they went to the wild, people began to throw things in from old shopping carts to rotary washing dryers, on numerous occasions friends have contacted the council to get one of them but have only been told we are not currently allocating them.

Very interesting stuff. You're right about the empty plots being in the wrong places - but how can we encourage everyone to consider taking an allotment? I think schools can help a lot in getting children hooked on the idea of growing stuff to eat, but it'll tkae a few years for the effects to filter down to parents. It would also help if allotments were better advertised to all sections of society, and sites offered half or beginners' plots for newbies ...
