Why cotoneaster is a problem in Kettering
On Kettering properties, cotoneaster bird-sown seedlings root into walls, rockeries and chalk banks, and established bushes crowd out native ground flora. Kettering's former boot and shoe factories left substantial brownfield land where knotweed has readily spread, with further colonies tracked along the Slade Brook and the disused Midland Main Line sidings nearby.
