Fencing timber for Birmingham gardens

Birmingham's suburbs are full of 1930s semis with long gardens and terraces with shared boundaries. Most jobs are 1.8m closeboard between neighbours.

Neighbourly boundaries

In areas like Hall Green, Erdington and Kings Heath, the fence between two long gardens can easily run 30m or more. 4.2m rails keep joins down, and a 4x3 post every 1.8m to 2.1m gives a solid run.

Where neighbours share the cost, a board-on-board fence looks the same from both sides, so nobody gets the back of the fence.
