John Fareham and
John Abbott have arranged for a consultation exercise to be carried out into
the possibility of setting up further allotments on the former Newland Avenue Primary School playing fields.
Residents will, in
the near future, be receiving a letter from the Council seeking to ascertain
whether they would be interested in creating a community allotment site on the
old school playing fields. If residents wanted to go ahead with the scheme it
would thus become the third phase of our attempt to increase the number of
allotments in the ward; some vacant Housing Department land on County Road
North and parts of the Bakers Field land behind Huntley Drive have already been
put into use on this role and, whilst the supply of available land for this purpose
is of course very limited indeed, as an allotment holder myself I want more
local residents to have access to an allotment of their own if they want one.
