Why running bamboo is a problem in Cirencester
On Cirencester properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Cirencester's Roman-era earthworks and the disturbed banks of the River Churn, combined with the old Cirencester railway branch line trackbed, have provided knotweed with long-established footholds around the town.
