    Why cherry laurel is a problem in Chesham

    On Chesham properties, cherry laurel self-sows through woodland, hedgerows and large gardens, forming deep shade that kills ground flora. Chesham sits astride the River Chess, a watercourse frequently colonised by knotweed, and the town's former boot and brush-making factory sites left disturbed brownfield ground where the plant has taken hold.
