Please help the Farm Terrace Community Association to save Farm Terrace
Allotments, Watford, and help to protect all allotment sites from future development.
Did you know that, due to the relaxation in planning laws, an increasing
number of allotment sites in the UK are being sold off by Local
Authorities or Parish & Town Councils for redevelopment?
Since 2007, 128 out of 132 applications to close or relocate allotment
sites have been granted by the UK Government. Their own allotment site
that has been in existence since 1896 is now under threat for a second
time after they had previously launched a successful legal challenge in
August 2013 against the UK government. They are now taking the
Government to court for a second time and, if successful, will help
protect other allotment sites as a successful legal challenge by them
will become case law. If you would like to know more about their story,
or wish to help in any way, please take a look at their website which has
a link to their fund-raising page –
