River city with a hard climate
Carlisle has experienced serious flooding, and some gardens near the rivers are low-lying. Concrete posts, gravel boards and designs that allow water to pass through help fences recover.
Cold winters, rain and wind mean durable materials are essential. Many homeowners in the surrounding villages combine fencing with hedges and stone walls.
Carlisle, England's most northerly city, sits close to the Scottish border, where the rivers Eden, Caldew and Petteril meet. Red sandstone buildings, Victorian terraces and suburban estates make up much of the city.

Questions about fencing in Carlisle
What fence is best in a flood-prone garden?
Concrete posts and gravel boards resist water damage. Some homeowners leave a gap at the base or choose removable panels.
How do I keep rabbits and deer out of a garden near Carlisle?
On the rural edge of the city and in villages such as Wetheral and Dalston, wildlife often finds its way in. Mesh buried along the base of a fence keeps rabbits out; deer need a taller barrier or a dense hedge.
