Yoker Allotments

The Yoker Allotment Association manages a site which is dedicated to the use of allotment gardeners in the locality. This site is conveniently located in Yoker, The site is divided into about 31 separate plots, ranging in size from 55 to 105 sq. metres. (If you still use the "old" units, 105 sq. m. is about 5 rods).

Tenants pay rents which funds the management of the site, and pay the annual lease charges. A small management committee, elected at the Annual General Meeting, is responsible for the administration of the site. Most of the regular maintenance work is carried out by the tenants themselves, on a self-help basis, coordinated by the committee.
