If you want to find out more about using our allotments, you can download our allotments Guidelines (PDF). This includes information about:

  • trees on plots
  • moving plots and
  • constructing polytunnels or sheds

Full and half plots

For the enthusiastic grower we have a large number of full size plots. These are 10 rods in size (250m2) allowing for the production of enough vegetables to supply a large family. A half a plot (5 rods) would suit the smaller family.

Mini plots

If you're considering growing your own produce and a full size plot is too intimidating then we have an idea that may appeal to you. Why not try a mini plot? A mini plot is exactly what it says. It's smaller than a standard plot yet a good working size and perfect for someone who doesn't have the time or inclination to start on a grand scale.

Additional needs

Sutton has a specially adapted site, within Cheam Park, to suit people with additional needs. There are 18 plots of varying heights surrounded by a sensory garden and a model plot to help give ideas and inspiration. Further facilities include:

  • seating
  • toilets and
  • a sheltered area

Trading facilities

For a small membership fee many allotment sites have trading huts. They allow you to buy all your gardening needs at reasonable prices and are more convenient than going to your local garden centre.
