Why ivy is a problem in Weymouth
On Weymouth properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Weymouth's Georgian seafront and the disturbed banks of the River Wey, along with former railway sidings near the old harbour, have allowed knotweed to establish across the town's backwater channels.
