About Katherine Street Allotments
A long, narrow site running parallel to Katherine Street in the Hurst area of Ashton, bounded by Victorian terraces on one side and the railway embankment on the other. The sheltered position creates a favourable microclimate, and the plots produce excellent crops of runner beans, brassicas, and soft fruit. The railway embankment supports wildflowers and provides habitat for nesting birds.
Katherine Street plot holders have been using PGT Repairs since Paul first opened, drawn by word-of-mouth recommendations passed between neighbouring allotment tenants. The proximity to Hyde means many drop their machines off on the way to work. Paul has helped several new plot holders choose the right strimmer for managing the thick boundary growth that characterises this sheltered site.
Katherine Street Allotments is just 2.5 miles from Paul's workshop in Hyde. Most allotment holders drop off equipment and collect it within a day or two — often the same day for straightforward repairs like spark plug replacement or carburettor cleaning.
