Why ragwort is a problem in Gorseinon
On Gorseinon properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. Gorseinon's tinplate and copper works along the Loughor left disturbed industrial ground, and the old Swansea Vale railway bed still carries knotweed down toward the estuary.
