Why stinging nettles is a problem in Haverhill
On Haverhill properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Haverhill's former textile mill sites along the River Stour headwaters have left disturbed ground colonised by knotweed, with further spread linked to the old Colne Valley railway embankment that once served the town.
