Gledhow Valley Allotments are the largest site in Leeds and
have been in existence since the 1st
World War.
The site is autonomous but is owned by Leeds City Council to whom we
pay rent.
The constitution of the association can be found here
Gledhow Valley Allotments are located between Harrogate Road and Gledhow
Valley Road in Chapel Allerton, Leeds, West Yorkshire.
There are 129 plots on the site some of which are half or even quarter
plots due to changing demographics. Once you have the allotmenting
bug and feel the benefits at half the price of a gym membership and taste
your own personally grown veg, you can always put your name down for
an larger plot if you outgrow your plot.
There are 164 plot holders with a current waiting list of
50, with 18 new plot holders since January 2007, 10 of which joining us this
month alone (approximate waiting time currently 18months).
Last year we had 15 new allotment tenants.
