Knotweed in Stoke-on-Trent
Stoke-on-Trent's dense network of former pottery works, marl pits and railway sidings along the Trent and Mersey Canal has left disturbed, nutrient-poor ground where Japanese knotweed spreads readily, particularly along embankments near Etruria and the River Trent.
Stoke-on-Trent sits within our Staffordshire coverage, where the main local pressure is potteries and colliery made ground plus the trent and mersey canal.
