Allotment holders are looking to set up a community action group to fight council plans to turn their plots into a car park.
As reported earlier this month, Alderley Edge Parish Council are hoping to take ownership of all three allotment sites in the village as soon as possible. They then plan to relocate the Heyes Lane allotments to land off Lydiatt Lane, so they can turn the site into a car park.
Alderley Edge resident John Sanderson, who has an allotment on Heyes Lane, is organising the meeting on Monday, 31st October, which is open to all local residents.
John told me "I thought it would be better to have some activity that involved everyone rather than just allotment holders because it affects more than just them.
"The idea is to set up a community action group if that's what people want."
This initial meeting will take place at 11a London Road, the offices of Power Engineering Consultants, at 6pm on Monday 31st October.
Email John Sanderson or call 01625 586808 for further information.
