Apply through the allotments association

The association’s form has a Plot availability option and a Grahams/Wessex Avenue site choice. Use those choices, then explain whether you mean the Highbury field. H&DAA encourages local applicants, ideally within walking distance. Ask which waiting list your enquiry will join and how it is kept up to date.

Confirm the full cost of an offer

H&DAA bases rent on plot size and lists separate membership and some additional charges. Its published rental example is explicitly dated 2025, so it is not a current quote. Before accepting, request the total for the offered plot, payment dates and any concession conditions.

Arrange a visit to the correct field

Highbury and Telecoms are the two parts of the wider Graham’s Field site, separated by Wessex Avenue. The association describes locked gates. The council lists flat and sloping ground and vehicle access, which does not establish step-free access to a particular plot. Confirm the meeting gate and route when arranging a viewing.
