Knotweed in Swindon
Swindon's former Great Western Railway works left extensive disturbed sidings and sleeper yards, where knotweed has become deeply entrenched, spreading through the town's old canal feeder streams.
Swindon sits within our Wiltshire coverage, where the main local pressure is kennet and avon canal, mainline railway land and estate expansion.
