Roding Road Allotment & Leisure Gardens Association
Allotment Watch June 2025
Some allotment holders have recently suffered break-ins to their sheds and damage to their property. We always advise plot holders to not lock their sheds, and never keep anything of value such as power tools in them.
While we do everything we can to keep the allotments secure, please be vigilant. If you witness anything suspicious or are a victim of any crime on the allotments, such as theft or criminal damage please do report it to the police, you can report it to the Committee so we are aware, but the police won't act unless the victim directly reports it. They will not be able to act if the Committee reports it on a plot holders' behalf.
You can report a non-urgent crime by calling 101 where you will be put through to the central control room. You can also now report a crime online using this link https://report.police.uk/.
If do report a crime to the police, you can also notify the Committee and the Loughton Neighbourhood Police Team by using this form.

A larger than average site, with 175 allotments, we are situated in Loughton, Essex, tucked away behind Roding Road.
We are a thriving community of all ages growing vegetables, fruit and flowers in a quiet area which is only a stones throw from Loughton Underground station and the town centre.
Whole or half plots can be rented, with whole plots costing £48 per annum and half plots £24 per annum. There are reductions for Senior Citizens. Click here for more details.
We are currently accepting applications from outside the Loughton area.
The Allotments are under the Association's direction and managed by a Committee of plot holders. All allotment holders on the site are members of the Association.
