Renting a plot

There are more than 200 plots on the site. They vary in size slightly, but most measure about ten square rods or approximately 250 square metres. The soil is fertile and sandy. Water is supplied by means of hand-operated pumps.

Because we have no paid officials, rents have been kept surprisingly low. All tenants must be members of the Royal Paddocks Allotments Association and, after payment of an initial joining fee of £24, annual rent for a full plot is £24 and £12 for a half plot. According to the constitution, two members may share a full or half plot.

Waiting list

At present the demand for plots is very high, higher than it has been for many years. Unfortunately, this means that the waiting list has been temporarily closed.
