About Pollen in Newcastle-under-Lyme

Spring (March-May) sees peak Birch and Oak pollen, originating from established trees within Brampton Park and surrounding Newcastle-under-Lyme woodlands; June-July brings significant grass pollen, prevalent across Lyme Valley Parkway meadows and local riverbanks.

The urban-valley microclimate of Newcastle-under-Lyme can locally concentrate airborne allergens; autumn (September-November) elevates mould spore counts, particularly from decomposing leaf litter in damp parklands and residential green spaces.

The pollen count in Newcastle-under-Lyme today is high, driven mainly by Mugwort.
