During 2012 Slingsby Allotments Association has had two vacancies on the allotments, which have been let to residents in the Parish. If you are interested in having a plot and have not put your name on the waiting then I would strongly recommend that you give me your details as the wait may not be as long as you think. Slingsby, South Holme and Fryton parishioners have priority for any vacancies. Allocations are made in date order so the quicker you put your name on the list the sooner you may get an offer of a plot. Don’t miss out, please contact Brian Clarke on 01653 628625. Many thanks.
