Allotment plot types
We have plots of different sizes, from 25 to 250 square metres. We also have smaller plots for people with restricted mobility.
Available plot types
| Plot type | Approximate plot size | Further information |
|---|---|---|
| Full plot | 250 square metres | Full plots become available less often, so expect a long wait. They're a big commitment because they take a lot of time to cultivate. |
| Half plot | 125 square metres | Most plots in the city are half plots. They're more manageable if you have limited time. |
| Quarter plot | 60 to 70 square metres | Aimed at new plot holders that might want to up-size in the future, or existing plot holders that want to downsize. You can stay on these plots for as long as you want, but you must reach a suitable level of cultivation after a year to move to a larger plot. |
| Easy access plot | 60 to 125 square metres | We will identify the most suitable available plots on the allotment site to allow easy access for people with limited mobility. Not available on all sites. |
| Limited mobility plot | 10 square metres | These plots have raised beds surrounded by paving. They’re ideal for people with restricted mobility or wheelchair users. Only available on Coldean, Foredown and Weald sites. |
