Why running bamboo is a problem in Camborne
On Camborne properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Camborne's tin mining heritage left extensive disturbed spoil tips and disused mineral railway lines, where knotweed has become entrenched around old engine houses and the South Crofty mine site.
