Palisade fencing

[Dean Lofthouse]

Does anyone have a contact for cheap palisade fencing, I may need around 150m of the stuff.

 

It is to fence around my new yard which has a perimeter of around 325m. I'm at a dilema of what to use as a barrier.

 

Obviously I dont want it to cost me a fortune, it needs to be fairly quick to establish a barrier.

 

I have thought of hawthorn, drystone walling, traditional sheep fencing with barbed wire. Drainage ditch at the bottom with a hedge at one side of it?

 

There is 100m of hawthorn already there which would need laying or thickening up. Another 50m of raggy hawthorn which is just about knackered.

 

Anyone got any suggestions

You want to stick some berberis in, that will stop anyone:scared:

With the price of steel as it is palisade fencing may be expensive but you might like to try an electric fence it will put off all but the most determined with hawthorn blackthorn etc planted inside there was a fencing system we used on our farm which is easy to put up an very effective it uses pvc pipe as insulaters and gripples to tension it made up of single strand wire. by the time the fence is knakered the hedge will do the job on its own

Blackthorn would be good, because the wounds go septic, but I reckon pyrocantha has the sharpest thorns.

i had to have a black thorn cut out of my leg early last year...had gone through a nerve...i couldnt walk after a while.....bastard thing...even the hospital were shocked as to how deep it went!!

cant you just wire an electric fence into the national grid? i'd have thought that would have been more your style. blow the phuckers up:scared:

There are Blackthorn whips growing all over the place there, will have to transplant then

These would also be quite an effective deterrent,but pay attention to the instructions
