About Pollen in Loughborough

Loughborough’s allergy profile shows dominant spring tree pollen (March-May): Birch and Oak from Queen’s Park, Loughborough University grounds, and Charnwood Forest fringes; Summer (May-July) brings peak grass pollen from local playing fields, surrounding agricultural land, and River Soar floodplains.

The town’s urban valley setting and prevailing westerly winds from Charnwood can concentrate and channel airborne allergens; late autumn/winter mould spores elevate due to leaf litter decomposition in public parks and damp conditions along canals/waterways.
