Allotments

There are 12 allotment sites in Runnymede Borough.

Council-managed sites

Nine of the sites are managed directly by us, so we handle the letting of plots and site maintenance.

Self-managed sites

Three of the allotment sites (marked with asterisks* in the list below) are self-managed. This means they're leased from us and run by the plot holders, who set plot fees and manage most of the maintenance.

We are keen to encourage the move to self-management for all of our sites. If any existing plot holders would like to explore this option, please contact the Allotments Officer.

Plot sizes

Allotments are traditionally measured by the rod - a unit of measurement equating to approximately 25 square metres. Most plots in Runnymede are between five and 10 rods (125 to 250 sqm).
