Why ivy is a problem in Leatherhead
On Leatherhead properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Leatherhead lies on the River Mole, whose disturbed banks and the old chalk pits near Fetcham have long provided the disturbed, damp habitat that Japanese knotweed exploits, aided by nearby railway embankments.
