Hidden among a residential street is a derelict allotment with huge potential but needs a lot of work.

Tonight’s task was to tackle a corner overgrown with weeds.

After a quick briefing we set away cutting back and digging up the weeds.

By time we lost the light we’d cleared a strip in front of the greenhouse.

Looking forward to seeing how this corner looks in day light.
