Default NT allotment abandoned

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/7479776/National-Trust-allotment-hailed-by-Monty-Don-falls-into-disrepair.html:

The charity created the allotment in the back garden of its
Westminster headquarters amid great fanfare last Spring.

A year on with nobody bothering to tend it, the allotment is now
an eyesore covered in rotting leaves.

A Trust employee admitted: "We did have an allotment but now its
buried under leaves. No-one had the time to look after it."
