I have an allotment plot with pathway down the middle - about 100 ft in
length and 2.5ft wide. At the moment it is just bear compacted earth with
containing gravel boards running along the length on either side. I am
thinking of grassing it over. But then I will need to mow it.

Would a simple light-weight pull/push mower do the job OK; or maybe a
battery-powered machine?

I just want to keep the grass neat and tidy without it muddying up or
anything.

Any suggestions/recommendations on what to buy?

I mow a small lawn for an aged friend using a Qualcast push cylinder mower.
It works well as long as the machine is kept in good order and you don't let
the grass get too long. The only problem with hers is that the mower has
side wheels which means I can't mow about three inches along the side of a
wall and border. I have seen a rear roller version which would probably be
better.
