Why ivy is a problem in Porthcawl
On Porthcawl properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Porthcawl's coastal position and the reclaimed dune land around Kenfig and Rest Bay give knotweed a foothold on disturbed sandy margins, reinforced by old mineral line beds linking back to the Bridgend coalfield.
