Why ivy is a problem in Crawley
On Crawley properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Crawley's development over former woodland and streams draining to the River Mole has left disturbed ground prone to knotweed, particularly along Tilgate Park's lakeside paths and the old railway embankments near the town centre.
