    Why stinging nettles is a problem in Chester

    On Chester properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Chester's Roman and Victorian development along the River Dee and Shropshire Union Canal left disturbed towpaths and old industrial wharves where Japanese knotweed has spread, particularly along the Meadows and Sealand Road corridors.
