    Why running bamboo is a problem in Doncaster

    On Doncaster properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Doncaster's colliery spoil heaps and railway marshalling yards along the River Don created ideal disturbed ground for Japanese knotweed, which has spread widely along the old mining branch lines and canal towpaths near the racecourse.
