Does anyone have a good set of fair rules or terms and conditions for allotment sites. I am particularly looking for a form of words that describes and acceptable standard for when a plot is ok or when it needs some action before the plot holder is warned about losing their tenancy

Compo, I'll dig ours out tomorrow, todays stomach bug permitting......

Cheers Peter, hope you are better soon mate!!

I would offer mine Compo as it is newly done since the amalgamation of the councils. Unfortunately or fortunately I have my mate decorating the house & the sideboard with the document is hemmed in with the bookcase & other furniture surrounding it. He will be finished next week so I will look for it then if you haven't got what you wanted.

Compo, ours has a section like this:-
4a) keep the whole allotment garden, including all pathways and storage areas, clean and in a good state of cultivation and fertility and in good condition.

Thanks folks all food for thought.someone here thinks 'no dig' is total zero effort on their plot.

Our allotment rules say:

The tenant shall keep the allotment clean and tidy, free from weeds, well manured and in a good state of cultivation and fertility.
......
The tenancy will be terminated after twenty-eight days' notice if the tenant does not comply fully with the rules and the tenancy agreement.

Monika. We added no loud music.

Oh I do so agree with the No Loud Music rule. For ANYWHERE outdoors apart from music festivals.

We were sitting trying to enjoy a tranquil lunch on our patio on Saturday listening to the little flock of goldfinches flying around the area and they were completely drowned out by a neighbour's loud music from a radio in their garden which was blaring out for much of the day. Really antisocial.
