Welcome
Western Wards Allotment Association (WWAA), we are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, Registered Charity Number, 1205562.
Between our 5 Allotment Sites across Locks Heath, Sarisbury Green, Titchfield and Warsash, we have around 500 plots available to rent.
Rental fees are payable annually on 1 October, except for Posbrook Lane, which is payable on 1 March, the current fees are £10 per rod per annum, Posbrook Lane is £11 per rod. In addition, a £5.00 Annual Membership fee is payable to the Association/CIO.
As a member of the association you can access our allotment shop (known as the Trading Hut) where our prices are very competitive and can be lower than elsewhere. You do not have to be a Plot Holder to access the Trading Hut, but you do have to pay the annual membership.
How to apply for an allotment?
To find out more about our allotments and availability please contact the site manager for your local site (see below).
Here are some guidelines to help you add your name on their waiting lists. Their telephone numbers are listed below.
You can also e-mail us via this website. It's probably also a good idea to read the Tenancy Agreement - it is what you'll be signing up to, if you decide to go ahead.
Once the plot is let the Site Managers will complete their part, therefore making it easier for all.
