Knotweed in Gloucester
Gloucester's historic docks along the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal and the Severn's disturbed floodplain have long harboured knotweed, with further spread from old railway sidings near Gloucester station.
Gloucester sits within our Gloucestershire coverage, where the main local pressure is severn floodplain, canal corridors and conservation constraints.
