They have featured in Test Valley’s new draft Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment.

Borough planning chiefs have issued the document after inviting landowners to come up with any sites they were prepared to free up for future housing needs.

The Broad-lands Estate came up with the land at the Romsey Allotments site.

The draft document is opening for public consultation until November 6.

Caroline Nokes, Cabinet spokeswoman for leisure and wellbeing, said: “We know how popular allotments are in Romsey and we want to do everything we can to help meet demand. I will certainly be arguing the case not only for these allotments in Romsey but also for more allotment spaces across the whole of the Test Valley.”
