Collect Open 2020 Allotment Plots

Researching through archives of historical and contemporary maps of allotments, Allotment Plots references both the layout of the allotment plots, but also the architecture from these sites, the sheds made from doors, the greenhouses made from windows, all precariously balanced at slight angles. These have enamelled steel panels, which have drawings of seeds growing, and details from archive material at the garden museum, dig for victory leaflets and seed sowing guides.
