Ashton Allotment Action

On St. George's Day, 23rd April, 2011 we started a green revolution in Ashton-Under-Lyne, Tameside, in the tradition of English radical group, the diggers who during the period of the English Commonwealth, in 1649 reclaimed the common land of St. George's Hill from the lords of the manor by digging and cultivating it.

After years of delay by Tameside Council prospective allotment holders in Ashton organized themselves to take over control of the land on Ashton moss that had been allocated for the replacement allotments, supported by sympathetic volunteers we came together in a day of action to reclaim the allotments from Cordingleys who have neglected and mismanaged the land.
