Why running bamboo is a problem in Littlehampton
On Littlehampton properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Sitting at the mouth of the River Arun, Littlehampton has significant riverside knotweed populations, further compounded by former shipyard and timber-wharf land along the harbour that has lain disturbed for decades.
