    Why suspected knotweed is a problem in Witney

    On Witney properties, suspected knotweed bindweed, houttuynia, dogwood, russian vine and bamboo are all mistaken for knotweed, which triggers unnecessary panic during a sale. The River Windrush and the old blanket-mill sites that line it have given Witney persistent knotweed problems, with the plant also spreading along the former Witney railway branch line embankments now used as footpaths.
