About Pollen in Gillingham

Gillingham, Dorset’s seasonal allergy profile: Spring (March-May) sees dominant tree pollen, primarily Birch, Oak, and Ash from Millennium Park and surrounding Ham Down woodlands; summer (May-July) features high grass pollen from River Shreen/Lodden riverbanks and adjacent agricultural meadows. Gillingham’s valley location and river confluence often trap airborne pollen, intensifying local concentrations; late autumn (September-November) brings elevated mould spores, stemming from decomposing leaf litter in damp woodland edges and floodplains.

The pollen count in Gillingham today is HIGH, driven mainly by Mugwort.
