Barnsley fencing FAQs
What fence suits a windy garden near Penistone?
Concrete posts with heavier or slatted panels, set deep in concrete, cope best with strong winds on higher ground.
Can a new fence go alongside an old stone wall?
Yes. Contractors usually set posts just inside the wall rather than fixing to it, to avoid damaging the stonework.
Do you need planning permission for a fence in England?
Most fences in England are permitted development up to 2 metres – or 1 metre where they border a road used by vehicles. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with the council before you build. More on fence height and boundaries.
