Why suspected knotweed is a problem in Corby
On Corby properties, suspected knotweed bindweed, houttuynia, dogwood, russian vine and bamboo are all mistaken for knotweed, which triggers unnecessary panic during a sale. Corby's dramatic industrial legacy from its former steelworks has left extensive derelict land where knotweed thrives, spreading further along disused railway sidings and the East Carlton Country Park's woodland streams.
