Allotments and houses, West London
An Allotment - defined as "a plot of land rented by an individual for growing vegetables or flowers" is a common sight in many parts of the UK and around the world, known under various names.
They give much pleasure to people who live in cities and who otherwise have no gardens. Also they have helped to fill a deep need during periods of hardship (in the UK and elsewhere during wars, for example).
This one was seen in the morning light on a flight approaching London's Heathrow Airport.
