I am an allotment holder which I have had for 12 years, my plot is where the intended entrance to the site is proposed, I note that you indicate that the allotments will require to be re-located but no timescale has been given for this and we are now in a position where we do not know if we should continue to work the land.

As a matter of urgency we need to be advised of the relocated site so that we can transfer all of the stock and equipment from this site. Many of us have built greenhouses, polytunnels raised beds and have mature fruit trees all of which we need time to move to a new site.

Allot of the current allotment holders are pensioners and rely on this site for pleasurable past times and also for a source of fresh food it is an essential part of the village leisure activities.

Within the plans can an adequate time be built in to ensure that we have time to transplant any crops that will be planted, as we will soon be entering the main planting season we will need time to plan ahead.

I hope that this plan will be done in full cooperation of the local peoples requirements and not pushed through without any regard for our wishes.
