The allotments, off Coleridge Road, on the Bournville estate, Weston, are currently only accessible by a footpath.

But a patch of rough ground and brambles will soon make way for an access road, as well as extra allotments.

North Somerset Council deemed the land unsuitable for other potential developments and handed it over to Weston Town Council for allotments.

Councillor Ian Parker said: “There are a number of South Ward residents who have allotments down there and anything to improve access can only be a good thing.”
