Wild plots

THE Vale of Glamorgan Council has left the allotments at Old Pencoedtre to grow wild.

There are thirty allotments but only ten are worked, the rest have bramble bushes, couch grass or bull rushes five feet tall. Some have been used as a fly tipping.

Is it not the responsibility of the council to keep the allotments that are not worked in good order, or do the council want to run them down until they are unworkable for everyone and then sell the land off for more houses?

Lets see the allotments in a state where people can work them from the time they take them over, then they might all be taken and the money paid be used to help keep them in good working order.
