Fencing timber for Manchester gardens
Redbrick terraces, alley-gated ginnels and suburban semis make up most of Greater Manchester's gardens. Damp weather is a given, so build for drainage.

Terraced yards and suburban semis
Back yards in Moss Side, Levenshulme and Salford are often enclosed by brick, with timber used to raise a low wall or screen a gap. A 1.8m board on 4x3 posts suits most of these jobs.
In Stockport, Sale and Bury, longer semi gardens call for proper runs of closeboard with three rails. Keep the boards off the ground to stay clear of standing water.
