This is council owned land at the end of my neighbours garden and this plant looks as though it may be Japanese Knotweed. Can anyone tell if it is form my crappy phone photos? Thanks for your help.

No that looks like it’s Leycesteria formosa. Known as Himalayan Honeysuckle or sometimes Pheasant Berry.

No. The leaves on Japanese Knotweed are staggered along the stem on either side, not adjacent like that.
