Yarrow (Achilles millefolium); Smooth sow-thistle (Sonchus oleraceus); Sea mayweed (Metricaria maritima); Red dead nettle (Lamnium sphondylium); Large-flowered evening primrose (Oenothera erythrosepala); Japanese knotweed (Reynoustria japonica); Herb robert (Geranium robertianum); Field rose (Rosa arvensis); Dandelion (Taraxacum vulgare); Common hogweed (Heracium sphondylum); Common field speedwell (Veronica persica); Charlock (Sinapis arvensis); Butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii); Bramble (Rubus fructicosus) and Black medick (Medicago lupulina). The female catkins of Hazel (Corylus avellana) were prominent and the fruit of the alien Snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus) evident.
