Why ivy is a problem in Northampton
On Northampton properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. The River Nene and Grand Union Canal both pass through Northampton, historically linked to the town's leather and shoe industries, and the disturbed brownfield land left by former tanneries continues to support knotweed growth.
