Earlier this year, a lady whose allotment is near mine, was in tears, because all her lovely seedlings had been eaten. Unprotected, left alone in...
OT (rabbits): Out driving here and there, it used to be common to see an unfortunate rabbit with myxomatosis. Unfortunately, I have not seen one...
Perhaps your allotment committee would take action? Especially if it's a council one ("public health concerns" etc.).

I had some done like that last night. Quite nice.
I might be tempted to go for high strength concrete blocks (for frost resistance, should be OK in the absence of fluid groundwater), with concrete...
