Why ragwort is a problem in Tredegar
On Tredegar properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. Tredegar's ironworks legacy left vast spoil tips along the Rhymney and Sirhowy, and these disturbed banks remain one of the most persistent knotweed strongholds in the South Wales valleys.
