These allotments, which to this city dweller appear impossibly idyllic, were open to the public for the Heritage Open Days 2021. Behind the idyll, of course, lies hard work and long term commitment, the challenge of group politics, the uncertainty of the weather and the threat, even here, of theft and vandalism. The Odibourne allotments were established in 1919.
