- Details
- Old fence removed, Closeboard on concrete posts
- Added
- January 2025
It was replaced with closeboard panels on concrete posts with a gravel board along the base, running past a garden shed and across the back of the plot. The gravel board keeps the timber up off the soil, which is where fences usually rot first.
Closeboard (feather-edge) fencing uses overlapping vertical boards fixed to rails between concrete posts. It is the most common choice for a private rear garden boundary because it gives full screening and a solid feel.
