Knotweed in Chichester
Chichester's network of Roman-era canals and the River Lavant, which floods seasonally through the city, provide long-term knotweed habitat, alongside disturbed ground around the old canal basin at Chichester Marina.
Chichester sits within our West Sussex coverage, where the main local pressure is arun and adur rivers, mainline embankments and post-war estates.
