Parish Council Allotments
Cayton Parish Council manages two allotment sites within the village. These plots provide residents with the opportunity to grow fruit, vegetables, and flowers, and form an important part of our local community.
Allotment locations
- Mill Lane Allotments – a long‑established site with a range of plot sizes
- West End View Allotments – a smaller site offering standard plots
Both sites are overseen by the Parish Council, which is responsible for tenancy agreements, waiting lists, and general site management.
Applying for an Allotment
Residents who wish to join the waiting list must complete an Allotment Registration of Interest Form. This ensures we have the information needed to contact you when a plot becomes available.
How to submit your form
Completed and signed forms can be returned in any of the following ways:
- By email – send a scanned copy or a clear photograph of the signed form
- By post – addressed to: Cayton Parish Council, Jubilee Hall, Main Street, Cayton, YO11 3TF
- By hand – forms may also be posted through the Jubilee Hall letterbox
Once received, your name will be added to the waiting list (if open) and we will contact you when a suitable plot becomes available. Please note that demand is high and waiting times can vary.
Tenancy and site management
Allotment holders are required to sign a tenancy agreement outlining responsibilities for cultivation, maintenance, and respectful use of the site. Regular inspections are carried out to ensure plots are kept in good condition.
If your circumstances change and you no longer require your plot, please notify the Parish Council so it can be reallocated.
