Bonfires - Park Road Site
Following a number of complaints from local residents, bonfires at Park Road will now only be permitted between 1st October and 31st March.
If you do decide to have a bonfire, please ensure that you abide by the following rules:-
- Fires are to be in a cleared area at a distance of at least 10m from any property.
- Only light a bonfire when the wind is blowing away from the houses surrounding the allotment.
Should the wind change, please put your bonfire out.
- You must attend your bonfire at all times and not cause a nuisance to neighbouring residents or other plotholders.
- A suitable fire-extinguishing appliance is to be kept available for immediate use.
- You must fully extinguish your bonfire at least one hour before leaving the site.
- Only burn dry material from your plot which you are unable to take to the recycling centre or place in your domestic brown bin.
- Never bring material from outside on to the allotment to burn, or burn plastic or man-made waste.
Any Plotholder who does not conform to the above requirements may cause a loss of insurance cover
and would therefore be acting entirely at his or her own risk as to all potential consequences.
