"thanks Maria
Yes I filled in my form too...and then zilch!
I asked the office today and they sent me a reading at once, At least that is an improvement. "
"Hello Philippe. From what I remember we were told the meter readings were due to start at the end of this month, and we would receive them every month from then onwards. As for a key I don't know any resident who has one, and I…"
Electric meter reading
Would anyone know what is going on with the meter readings on the estate? a form was circulated so the staff would read the meters every month, but nothing seems to have happened. Would anyone have a key to the meter cupboard so I could take a reading? Thanks.See More

Golden Baggers
Nestled between the Ralph Perring Centre and Hatfield House are the Golden Lane Estate allotments run by a thriving community of ‘Golden Baggers’.
This little oasis began as a food-growing project in 2010 using 20 one-tonne builders' bags on the unused site of the former nursery playground. Thanks to an award from the Tesco ‘Bags of Help’ scheme in 2016 these were replaced with 42 solid wooden boxes.
Members can rent a 1m x 1m box for a year to grow fruit and vegetables and share plants, seeds, produce, experience and knowledge with each other.
Events
The Baggers run events throughout the year including:
- Social Sundays on the first Sunday of each month from 10:30am
- opening our allotments to the public (such as for London Square Open Gardens Weekend - 11 / 12 June 2022)
- seasonal events (such as our Harvest Celebration)
- baggers trips (such as our 2018 outing to Turn End home and gardens)
How to become a Golden Bagger
All Golden Lane Estate residents who agree to our terms & conditions (see below) can apply to join our community initially as a Friend and tend communal areas. After a year their name will get added to our waiting list to hire a box when one becomes available.
