Why moss is a problem in Ely
On Ely properties, moss holds water on paths, drives and roofs, making surfaces dangerously slippery and shortening the life of the surface beneath. Ely's position on the River Great Ouse amid the drained fenland has left extensive drainage dykes and old riverside wharves where knotweed has become established, spreading readily through the flat, waterlogged terrain.
