Knotweed in Stevenage
As one of the first post-war new towns, Stevenage saw extensive earthmoving during development, and knotweed has since colonised disturbed verges along the River Beane and old railway sidings near the original town.
Stevenage sits within our Hertfordshire coverage, where the main local pressure is colne and lea corridors plus new-town made ground.
