    Why floating pennywort is a problem in Warrington

    On Warrington properties, floating pennywort grows up to twenty centimetres a day, choking ponds, ditches and slow water and blocking drainage and angling access. Warrington's dense railway network, old chemical works and the Manchester Ship Canal have created disturbed corridors along the River Mersey where Japanese knotweed proliferates, especially near former wire-works and tannery sites.
