Why ivy is a problem in Coleford
On Coleford properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Coleford lies amid the Forest of Dean's former coal and iron workings, where disturbed spoil heaps and old tramway routes have given knotweed extensive opportunities to establish across the wooded valleys.
