Pollen Count & Forecast for Mansfield

Mansfield’s spring pollen profile is dominated by Birch and Oak (March-May) originating from urban green spaces like Titchfield Park and peripheral Sherwood Forest woodlands; Alder pollen is also prevalent near the River Maun; Grass pollen peaks May-July, widely dispersed from River Maun floodplains and roadside verges.

Local valley topography, exemplified by Berry Hill and Mansfield’s urban street canyons, exacerbates pollen load via trapping and reduced dispersion; late autumn introduces elevated mould spore counts (September-November), driven by damp leaf decomposition in woodlands and humid low-lying areas, particularly along the River Maun corridor.
