About Pollen in Westminster

Spring sees dominant Birch and Oak pollen, March-May; originating from Regent’s Park, Hampstead Heath woodlands, and pervasive urban street trees across Westminster and Camden. Summer brings peak Grass pollen, May-July; sourced from park lawns, meadows, and river/canal banks.

Urban topography, including dense building structures and parkland proximity, can concentrate localised pollen levels. Autumn introduces mould spores, September-November; prevalent from damp leaf litter and decaying organic matter in shaded park areas and along the Regent’s Canal.

The pollen count in Westminster today is HIGH, driven mainly by Giant Ragweed.
