Knotweed in Newbury
Newbury's Kennet and Avon Canal towpaths and the River Kennet's disturbed water meadows, alongside the old racecourse's railway sidings, have provided knotweed with long-standing footholds around the town.
Newbury sits within our Berkshire coverage, where the main local pressure is thames and kennet corridors plus gwr embankments.
