Why ivy is a problem in Sudbury
On Sudbury properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Sudbury sits on the River Stour, whose water meadows and former silk-weaving mill sites have given the town persistent knotweed infestations, particularly around the old wharf area near Ballingdon Bridge.
