I object to the proposal converting the allotment site into housing development. This is a community amenity which benefits all ages, regardless of income, education or ethnic background. The local school has a gardening club, so the allotments is the next place for them to continue their interests. Allotments are a health benefit providing natural food as well as exercise, (food with no air miles). Allotments take a long time to mature and get into good working condition, so destroying the present allotments when there are other options available would have detrimental effects on the community
