Welcome to our website
Here you can find information about the Shepherds Hill Allotments site. In the About Us section there is a brief description of the site and how it is managed. In the News section we post all newsletters, which are also emailed to tenants, usually on a monthly basis. If you want to look back at the archives for a particular news item, you can do it here. The Forum section is for discussions between tenants, and includes a ‘give and take’ topic where you can post information about items you’d like to give away or find things you are looking for. On the Diary page we list the opening times and dates for the Trading Shed and any upcoming site and local events. The Resources section has a wealth of important information, including details of the Site Committee, the Tenancy Agreement, site handbook and other guidance. Under the Trading Shed section you will find a comprehensive price list of all items stocked in the shed and details of opening times.

Waiting List
Demand for plots at Shepherds Hill far exceeds supply. We have 225 plots and in 2025 we were able to allocate 13 to new tenants, and in the previous year around 20. These numbers are unlikely to change substantially over the next few years. Currently there are around 80 people on the waiting list. We opened the list briefly in January 2026 to accept a similar number of people as plots we let in the previous years. We plan to similarly open the list in January 2027. Please keep an eye on this website for updates.
