There are twenty-four allotment sites within the Borough. Fourteen are directly let from Vision RCL and the other ten are managed by societies or independent voluntary organisations. If you live in Redbridge and are over the age of 18 you can apply to rent an allotment.
One rod is equal to 25 square metres. Our allotment gardens vary in size but are normally 5 rods (125 square metres) or 10 rods (250 square metres).
Facilities on allotment sites vary but usually include piped water and toilets. Some sites have parking and society trading huts.
Most of the plots run by Vision RCL are currently occupied and the majority of our waiting lists are oversubscribed, please see the list below for availability. Alternatively, you can contact the Allotment Societies for the availability of their plots.
