Allotments

Allotments have been an integral part of the urban landscape in the UK for over a century.

Allotment gardening reached its zenith in the 1940s when people were urged to ‘Dig for

Victory’ during the war.

I stumbled along this old allotment whilst walking along the River Brent. It struck me as

being like a little abandoned village with its decaying structures and discarded implements

with nature gradually taking over and no signs of  the vandalism often associated with derelict

places
