A big area of the Mill Allotment Holders Association's plots stretches from Ascot Road to New Bridge, between Grassington Road and the railway. The railway is over the hedge at the back, and the houses on Poulter Close (built on the site of Radford Colliery) can be seen through the trees on the other side of the railway. These allotments feature in Radford author Alan Sillitoe's short story "The Decline and Fall of Frankie Buller", set in the 1930s.
