Celebrating our Community Green Flag Award - the 7th consecutive year!
Welcome!
Welcome to Roeshot Hill Allotments and the community that thrives there. There are in excess of 200 plots of varying sizes and over 150 individual plot-holders. The allotments are owned by Christchurch Borough Council and are largely operated on their behalf by the Roeshot Hill Allotment Association. The Association runs through a committee of plotholders and we are members of the National Society of Allotment and Leisure Gardeners. (NSALG renamed the National Allotment Society (NAS) The national allotment body).
Membership of the Association is open to all tenants of Roeshot Hill Allotments (£6) and other Christchurch allotment tenants can be Associate members. Membership gives access to the Trading Hut and other facilities.
Just as important, it also includes insurance through NSALG which is a requirement of your tenancy.

Founder Member & Life Vice-President - Hugh Merrett
Hugh can trace his involvement with Roeshot Hill Allotment site from the inception to the present day! At the inaugural meeting of the Association Hugh was elected as Chairman, a post that he held for many years. The continued existence of the Association owes much to his hard work and dedication, (assisted by Jane, his wife,) for which the members unanimously voted him as the first Life Vice-President at the 2006 AGM.
