STR - Willowherb

STR - Willowherb
A late flowering example of Rosebay Willowherb [Epilobium augustifolium], also known as "fireweed" from the frequency with which it colonises burnt and ashy areas, or disturbed ground.
Very common on old WW2 bombsites which usually meant both burnt and disturbed ground.

This area by Alston Station is part of the footpath alongside the STR, and is managed as a linear nature friendly area.
