Stoney Road Allotments - Coventry

A group of mid and late C19 detached urban pleasure gardens retaining a nationally significant group of C19 and early C20 summerhouses and associated structures. The site is still actively used as allotments and tenanted by the Stoney Road Gardens Association (SRGA). The summer houses are the principal elements at risk, not being maintained since listing in 2001. A conservation management plan was produced in 2018. Grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund has funded a condition survey and feasibility study. A Historic England grant made in 2023 for professional fees & consolidation work.
