Why knotweed spreads in South Yorkshire
The Don and Dearne valleys and the county's extensive former colliery and steelworks land carry one of the heaviest knotweed burdens in northern England, with railway routes linking the sites together.
Main local pressure: Don and Dearne valleys, ex-colliery and steelworks land.
