The Allotments were established in June 1917 and cover over 9 acres, with 158 allotment plots. We can be found on Mackworth Road in Derby.

The allotments serve the residents of the surrounding area, but this should not deter you from applying for an allotment if you live in other areas of Derby.

New members are always welcome. We do have a waiting list of people wanting an allotment, but this should not deter you from booking an appointment with our Lettings team. They can give you a tour of our wonderful site and discuss what you are looking for in a plot. They'll be better placed to recommend the best plot for your needs, when one becomes available. Book an appointment with one of the team at https://ardaa-shop.square.site/s/appointments or contact us by secretary [at] araa.org.uk (Subject: Website%20Enquiry) (email) or give us a ring on 01332 485018‬ and select option 2.

The site is owned by Derby City Council and leased by Ashbourne Road District Allotment Association Ltd. The Association, a Registered Society, is run and managed solely by volunteers. The Association's volunteers work hard to ensure all Members are able to enjoy recreational gardening to the maximum, in a safe, welcoming and supportive environment.
