Why running bamboo is a problem in Congleton
On Congleton properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Congleton's former silk and textile mills along the River Dane left disturbed millraces and weirs where Japanese knotweed has established, spreading along the railway viaduct and old mill lodges scattered through the town.
