Pollen hotspots in Plymouth

Situated on the south coast of England, Plymouth benefits from a fresh sea breeze. Areas close to the sea have been found to have significantly lower pollen counts than inland, but that doesn’t mean Plymouth is a hay fever-free zone.

The city is home to plenty of parks and green spaces as well as being surrounded by countryside. Central Park, Hoe Park and Devonport Park are all close to Plymouth city centre, while the enormous Saltram National Trust Park is to the east. In fact, 32% of the city is luscious green space.

When it comes to countryside, Plymouth is surrounded. South Devon AONB is situated to the east, Tamar Valley AONB and Dartmoor National Park to the north, miles of Devon farmland to the west and Mount Edgcume Country Park to the south. All in all, this means whichever direction the wind blows, it could bring tree, grass or weed pollen with it.
