Principle: An allotment committee may end a tenancy only where the tenant has left the plot unworked for a full season. Sowing, digging or covering any part of a plot works it, whether or not anything is harvested. Work done on a plot by a person to whom the tenant has let it is not work by the tenant.

Which one of the following judgements conforms most closely to the principle above?

AAshcott's plot yielded nothing whatever last season, no crop having been taken off it since the spring before, and his committee ended his tenancy on that ground; the ending was proper.

BDarrow let his plot to a neighbour who dug it over all season, and himself sowed grass seed on one corner of it in early April; the committee may not end his tenancy.

CFenhurst's plot went a whole season without the tenant once touching it, so the committee was bound to end his tenancy.

DSince Grantley's tenancy was properly ended, nobody at all can have worked his plot during the season that ended before the committee acted.

EKirkbride dug over one bed in March and let nine-tenths of his plot lie unworked for the rest of the season, so the committee may end his tenancy.
