Allotments

Waiting lists

Due to the increasing popularlity of allotments there is an approximate waiting time of four / five years for an allotment plot in Preston.

To be eliigle for a plot on any of our sites you must pay your council tax to Preston City Council. 

If you wish to be placed on the waiting lists please complete the Request an allotment plot form or contact us on 01772 906471 parks@preston.gov.uk. 

In an effort to reduce the waiting time as plots become vacant they are being halved and each half will be offered as a regular plot.  In exceptional circumstances where it is not possible to halve a plot this will be let as a large plot .
