The Ascott Allotments site occupies 12 acres in South Ealing, London and is the second largest allotment site in the City. It has around 310 individual plots occupied by around 240 plotholders. The site itself is owned by Ealing Council but day to day management is performed by an association of plotholders called the Friends of Ascott Allotments.
