    Why water primrose is a problem in Penistone

    On Penistone properties, water primrose forms floating mats over ponds, lakes and slow drains, deoxygenating water and blocking flows. Penistone's former wire mills and railway viaduct over the River Don created disturbed, damp ground where Japanese knotweed has taken hold along the old Woodhead line embankments and riverside pastures nearby.
