So when I put an offer in on my flat in March, I also investigated local allotments and found some just over the main road. I enquired then (it might have been April) but there were no vacancies at that point, but I was put on a list. Flat buying then took forever, finally completing on the day of the mini-budget (leaving me a bit smug as my 5 year fix is looking rather nice now). Just as I was wondering about a follow up email about allotments the secretary got in touch to say there were now some available and so I arranged to see a man about an allotment after work one Tuesday in October and signed up for a very nice south facing sloping plot with a shed and some fruit trees.
It's not massively overgrown but obviously hadn't had much done on it last year (previous holder's health declined). So there's digging to be done.
( Record of what I've done mainly for my own memory )
