About Pollen in Welwyn Garden City

Welwyn Garden City experiences peak spring tree pollen (March-May): Birch from Parkway’s urban trees; Oak from Sherrardspark Wood and wider parkland. Summer (May-July) sees dominant grass pollen originating from local meadows, Campus West green spaces, and River Lea corridors.

WGC’s structured green spaces and tree-lined avenues concentrate airborne allergens; local geography aids widespread distribution. Late season (Sept-Nov) mould spores proliferate from damp leaf litter and decaying vegetation within local woodlands and shaded park areas.
