Good piece of land, when you clear it, and you gain from growing veg n fruit,, can you get some voluntary to help, look out for more burning drums to clear the scrub faster, I love to help but to far away, just stay fit and healthy, and stay safe, admire your task ahead.
having a burn barrel on your plot sure cuts down on the number of bags you have to haul away! the ash can be added in moderation to your compost pile too! it would be nice to have a little wood burning stove in your brick shed for a bit of heat come winter when you are cleating the brambles from the bottom if the plot!
You really have made a dent in the mess of that allotment. I wonder how long the plot was dormant, but also whether the previous plot-holder used it as a bin rather than a place to grow food.
It's cheaper to rent an allotment for a year than it is to hire a skip and it takes a long time for the council to evict tenants. The people who had it before me didn't bother to clear the mess they inherited and left it all for me.

Thanks for your good wishes. I'll get some friends to help, once the unsafe rubbish and weeds have gone and it's easier to work the plot.
That's a lot of time and effort, and your results show it's been worth it. Looking forward to seeing more of your progress. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, will do more videos soon!
It's such hard work clearing an overgrown plot! You're doing well.
Yes, but the hard work is worth it! Thank you!

I'll be warm enough in winter from the exercise of pulling weeds and digging up brambles ;)

I thought mine was bad
Nah, When it comes to stinky allotments, I can get the worst.
