You reported last week that an inquiry is to take place on the future of the Spitalcroft Allotment site.

Also stated is that the argument that there is no alternative site is lost because of the recent approval by the inspector on appeal for allotments on Windsor Drive.

This is not correct. The important words of the Inspector were "similar quality". Robert Hitchins may have planning permission for some allotments. However, there was and is plenty of evidence that they will in no way equal the quality of the Spitalcroft site.
