Although not in Tyne and Wear my father has had his allotment for over 50 years its all become a bit much for him and he happily divided it in two with younger gardeners.They were not on council list as he was not giving up plot.As far as council concerned still his plot and they share rent.Worth visiting allotments to see if certain ones neglected and if owners will go halves with you.Think my dad enjoys passing on his experience and was worried who might end up next to him So worth trying to build a rapport with allotment holders.
