About my allotment

Leg of Mutton Allotment is a small allotment site, located near Earsdon Village, North Tyneside (North East England). And located approximated 1 mile from the North Sea coast.

Overview of my plot
I grow my vegetables in 5 raised beds (21ft long x 4ft wide) with 18inch paths in between. I also have a fruit-cage (raspberries & strawberries) 21ft long x 6ft wide, an 8ft x 6ft greenhouse, 3 compost areas, a tool store and 3 waterbutts.

My neighbours
The plot is split into 2, the front is run by Audrey, an old lady who grows potatoes, onions, sprouts and beans. And I run the back.

Sharing the entrance to the plot is Sandra who has a full length plot (mine plus Audrey's put together). Sandra has had the plot since 2008 and she's worked hard to get rid of the rabbits, and grows masses of flowers.

Over the fence is John & his wife, they have a full-length plot. John has an expanding pigeon loft empire, and his wife grows the vegetables at the front of the site.
