What is an allotment?

An allotment is a plot of land let by the Council for cultivation purposes.

How much does it cost to rent an allotment?

For April 2010 - April 2011 (1 year) the cost is 30p per square metre.

The average plot is 126m², which works out at a payment of £37.80. You can either pay your total bill in full or break it down into quarterly payments.

For the following year (April 2011 - April 2012) the cost will be 31p per square metre.

Are there any discounts?

The Council does not offer discounted prices.

How can I make a payment for my allotment?

Once you have received your invoice, you can either send us a cheque for the full amount (payable to Havant Borough Council), or visit the Civic Offices' Cashiers desk from 9am to 4.30 pm. If you would like to make your payments quarterly, please contact Resource Services on (023) 9244 6389.
