Knotweed in Lichfield
Lichfield's Minster Pool and old canal wharves near the Wyrley and Essington Canal offer damp, disturbed banks where knotweed thrives, spreading along the Cathedral city's railway corridors and former gravel workings on its outskirts.
Lichfield sits within our Staffordshire coverage, where the main local pressure is potteries and colliery made ground plus the trent and mersey canal.
