Andrew Buurman’s photographs capture the essence of the allotment and
convey the enthusiasm and diversity of today’s plot holders. These
photographs were all taken on Uplands Allotments, in Handsworth, in the
heart of Birmingham. The largest allotment site in the UK – with 422
plots – it opened in 1949, with its own office and meeting hall. Even
today it retains much of the communal spirit of the post war era with
weekly tea dances, bingo nights and an annual flower and vegetable show.
Great photos
