City allotment rents rise - and will go up annually
Western Daily Press
|October 23, 2025
ALLOTMENT rents have been hiked 12 months after Bristol City Council approved the controversial rises and they are now set to go up every year.
Bills detailing the increases agreed in October 2024 by the public health and communities committee, which were less than originally proposed following a huge campaign by plot-holders, have been sent out to tenants in their annual invoices.
Members voted for annual rent for a small plot size of 75 to 149 square metres, the most common type in Bristol, to go up from £50 to £66 without water or £76 with water.
