Quite right I should have said that - duh!

It's a piece of land to GROW food or plants on that you can rent on an
annual basis, usually through your local council with many bylaws and
usually rules for it's upkeep.

Although it varies quite a lot as to what's allowed and what isn't


On the University allottments, you can keep chickens!!!


Yeah, but they wouldn't know how to kill and cook 'em ;-)
