Weeds are fast growing plants that may grow naturally in many areas and can spread very rapidly if left unchecked. Weeds will affect gardens and can easily change a well-tended garden into a mess. There are various varieties of weeds in the United Kingdom and while many are beneficial in small quantities, many others can quickly become problematic. Types like Japanese knotweed and brambles can very quickly overwhelm the vegetation already present in a garden. It’s critical to keep any weeds in your garden in order as in serious circumstances they could cause structural problems to the building if they’re allowed to grow unchecked near to the house.
Some varieties of weeds such as Japanese knotweed have legal requirements on them as they are non-native invasive species. It is not illegal to have Japanese knotweed in your garden but you are obliged by law to keep it under control and prevent it from spreading. If you have Japanese knotweed in your garden and the local authority deems it to considerably affect the appearance of the local area then they can make you manage it.
Experienced weed control companies can accurately identify the species of weed which is causing an issue in your garden. They can then carry out an effective treatment plan which may consist of using chemical or organic herbicides along with installing preventative measures such as weed control fabric or mulch. The most effective way to keep weeds under control is to keep a well-maintained garden and to remove any weeds as quickly as you can.

Barkingside is a district of Ilford inside the London Borough of Redbridge in north east London. It was an area of Essex until Redbridge was established in 1965. It’s mostly recognised for Barnardo’s, the children’s charity, which was founded there in 1866. It still has its headquarters there. The oldest buildings in Barkingside are the Barnardo’s chapel, the London Underground station and Holy Trinity Church. Barkingside is a diverse district, with an unusually high population of London’s Jewish community.
Several of the buildings along the High Street are owned by Lord Alan Sugar, and you can find a lot of other amenities within the district. The Fullwell Cross Library is a Grade II listed building, fashioned in a distinctive circular shape. A leisure centre also holds the same name. Ken Aston Square was opened in 2014, named after a local head teacher and football referee, assumed to have introduced red and yellow cards. Residents picked the name from a shortlist.
Redbridge FC play non-league football at the Oakside stadium, which is adjacent to Barkingside tube station. Barkingside Recreational Ground in Mossford Green is a well known open space with residents. Also, footballer Trevor Brooking who played for West Ham United and England went to Ilford County High School within the area.
