Knotweed in Weymouth
Weymouth's Georgian seafront and the disturbed banks of the River Wey, along with former railway sidings near the old harbour, have allowed knotweed to establish across the town's backwater channels.
Weymouth sits within our Dorset coverage, where the main local pressure is stour and frome catchments, protected heathland and dense coastal plots.
