Allotments
Lurgashall still has Allotments to rent
A recent upsurge on people taking up allotments (recent food awareness issues) means that we now
only have a few left to rent (June08). Just £10/yr.
The allotment site has recently been fenced with rabbit proof fencing, the fence to the west is due
to be renewed in the comming weeks and the vacant land gets 2 or 3
regular mowings throughout the season to keep down the spread of weeds. Please contact
the Parish Clerk on 01428-707336 for more details.
