    Knotweed in Wantage

    Around the market place and the Vale of White Horse, Wantage's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Oxfordshire.

    Wantage sits within our Oxfordshire coverage, where the main local pressure is thames and cherwell floodplains and heavy conservation-area constraints.
