please can something be done about the person who keeps bringing a dog into the allotments and leaving it. The poor dog is crying out loudly and it was there for several hours yesterday too. It’s not fair on the dog or the people who live around the allotments.
Hi John – Thank you for your message.
Dogs are not allowed onto the Harrogate Road allotments unless with a plot holder so none are ever left on site.
I have been to the site today and the dog is actually in a garden on Churchill Crescent which backs onto the other side of the site so the sound may appear to be coming from the allotments.
As a resident of the area it may be worth you contacting the council to see if they can help.
Oh! My mistake, apologies for that. I will look into it if the problem persists. Thank you for the information and again I apologise for thinking it was coming from the allotments.
John
Hello,
I’m one of the residents who lives next to the allotments on Harrogate Road. I hate to complain but could I request that noisy power tools are not used on the allotments for long periods of time on a Sunday? My family is trying to enjoy our garden on our only day off but somebody has been using a petrol fuelled power tool of some sort for the last 2 hours and it’s making an awful noise to the point where everybody has gone back inside. I appreciate there is work to be done on the site but could this be done in a more considerate way with regards to residents living next to the allotments?
Thank you.
Regards Jose
Hi, I have passed your concerns to the committee. Please note most plot holders have full time jobs and weekends may be the only time they get to work on their plot.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I understand what you are saying. We also work full time jobs and the weekend is the only we have got to relax in our garden.
We appreciate that people do normal jobs on their plots over the weekends, however, a very noisy petrol engine running consistently for over 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon is not respectful to people living next the allotments.
I hope a compromise can be reached.
Hello,
Some one using the same machine or a similar one, I do not know if it is the same person that previously, has been using it for the last 2 hours at least, and it is still on going.
I understand that machine have to be use sometimes, but this length of time is unacceptable. It is incredibly disturbing.
Can you put a limit on the time that these machines are used in the allotments please? It is important to be respectful to the people’s livelihoods
Hi there,
How do you sign up to put your name on the list for an allotment?
Thank you
Hi Olivia, you can contact the committee on

Hello, I live next to these allotments and somebody keeps bringing a dog onto the site and leaving it tied up and all it does is bark all day long. It is there now barking loudly. I have nothing against dogs and have 2 of my own but I work from home and my job involves speaking to people on the phone all day. This dog’s barking is becoming a problem. Please could you speak to the owner and have them do something about this as it’s causing an issue with my work. I also feel sorry for the dog as it’s clearly not having any fun being left in the allotments like that.
Hi Neil, I have passed your message to the allotment committee, and asked them to speak to the dogs owner.
