Why ivy is a problem in Crosby
On Crosby properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Crosby's sandy coastline and former railway sidings near Waterloo have allowed knotweed to spread through the dunes surrounding Crosby Marine Park and along the disused rail embankments toward Hightown.
