Littleover Lane Allotment Association is a well established and safe site situated in Littleover on the outskirts of the city of Derby.  We have 193 individual plots on the 11.8 acres site. 

We are a friendly community of fruit, vegetable and flower growers who enjoy this quiet haven hidden from the hustle and bustle of city life, including our family of foxes and lots of hedgehogs.

The soil on site is generally heavy clay, so can be challenging to work, but is very fertile and supports a huge range of produce.

All kinds of vegetables, flowers, fruit trees and bushes can be found growing on the allotments.  Some plot holders specialise in growing rare heritage varieties, and we have others that have vineyards, grow exhibition quality dahlias and even cacti!

You don’t need to be an expert to work a successful plot.  We all have varying interests, levels of experience and motives for growing and we have plots of different sizes to suit different needs.

We range from singletons, couples, young families, empty nesters and retirees from all backgrounds, all with a common interest in growing.   We enjoy and value relaxing in the peaceful surroundings of the allotment site and we are committed to ensuring it is preserved for future generations.

If you are interested in having a plot of your own, or want to arrange a visit, please use the contact form and we will be in touch with you.

We look forward to seeing you on site!
