Fencing timber for gardens in Wales
Valley terraces stacked up hillsides, wet upland weather, and exposed coastline from the Gower to Anglesey. Welsh gardens reward a fence built with slopes and rain in mind.

Hills, rain and sea air
In the South Wales valleys, rows of terraces climb the hillsides and back yards are narrow and steep. Stepped fence bays on longer posts keep the top line tidy, and sleepers hold back soil to create a level area for seating or growing.
Wet weather is a constant in the uplands, so drainage around posts and a gap under the boards help timber last. On exposed coasts such as Pembrokeshire and Anglesey, choose square 4x4 posts.

Questions
How do I fence a steep back yard?
Step the fence in level bays and use longer posts where the ground drops. Retaining sleepers can create level areas within the yard.
