27 metres, and every post plumb
A long fence run shows up every mistake. Get one post out of line and you'll see the kink from the other end of the garden — so the setting out matters as much as the carpentry.
This one backs onto Redcar racecourse, so it's exposed and it catches the wind coming off the coast. Built properly on concrete posts with gravel boards, there's no timber sitting in the wet ground to rot out in a few years.
Straight, level, and built to stand up to a Redcar winter.
