Water Leaks on site

15th April 2020


There was quite a severe water leak at the base of the plot yesterday, and the council contractors have been on site, but need spare parts to repair and in the short term have had to turn the water off. Please note the following message from Chelmsford City Council in relation to this matter.

Please DO NOT tamper with ANY of the standpipes on the allotment site as the Council are aware of various water leak issues at the moment and in the process of resolving this issue. If a standpipe near to your plot isnt working please in the meantime use water from one that is working.

There are standpipes working at the far side of the plot (up from the Wilderness Foundation and we hope to have some positive news in relation to a fix shortly,
