Apparently good news for the Manor park allotments campaign;
"Wednesday evening brought bad news for the London Development Agency
who’s bid to acquire land related to the Olympics was turned down by
planners at Waltham Forest Town Hall. The LDA was applying for planning
permission for allotments on Marsh Lane Fields where they want to
relocate the existing Manor Gardens allotments, currently located within
the proposed Olympic Park."

Full story here;

However as the article says its not over yet, with the LDA very likely
to appeal against the decision...

Sign the petition here to save Manor Gardens allotments from Olympic
'development'.
