Knotweed in Falmouth
Falmouth's historic deep-water harbour and former shipbuilding yards along the Penryn River have left disturbed dockside land where knotweed spreads through old quarry workings and coastal footpaths.
Falmouth sits within our Cornwall coverage, where the main local pressure is ex-mining land, mild maritime climate and long disposal runs.
