Why creeping and spear thistle is a problem in Beeston
On Beeston properties, creeping and spear thistle creeping root spreads laterally through pasture and amenity grass, and wind-blown seed carries the problem onto neighbouring land. Beeston's former pharmaceutical works and canal-side factories along the River Trent and Beeston Canal left disturbed floodplain ground where Japanese knotweed has spread along the marina and old industrial estates.
