Knotweed in Cheltenham
Cheltenham's Regency-era development left disturbed ground along the River Chelt and old spa gardens, while the former railway lines into Cheltenham Spa station provide corridors along which knotweed continues to spread.
Cheltenham sits within our Gloucestershire coverage, where the main local pressure is severn floodplain, canal corridors and conservation constraints.
