    Why stinging nettles is a problem in Halifax

    On Halifax properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Halifax's steep-sided valleys and former mill lodges along the Hebble Brook and Calder and Hebble Navigation have created disturbed damp ground ideal for knotweed, spreading through old textile mill yards.
