9000m replacement stock fencing project starting June 2023

9000m replacement stock fencing project over the next few months
Close to the ancient Wansdyke (a series of early medieval defensive earthworks consisting of a ditch and a running embankment from the ditch spoil, with the ditching facing north).
The name is taken from Woden’s Dyke.
Not a bad view, either!  Our Evo 3 Protech is making a 500-metre roll of netting look quite small!!

Conservation Contractors Newsletter issued 28 April 2023

With the driest February for 30 years followed by the wettest March in England since 1981, I think it is safe to say it has been a challenge recently to get jobs completed or in some cases even started! We are very grateful for your patience and understanding.

As trees come into leaf, it will be a good time to undertake safety surveys, especially if you have ash trees present in your portfolio.  We are still finding trees with no signs of the disease, so there may still be hope that the landscape may not be devoid of ash trees going forward; however, time will tell.

The King’s Coronation will be a chance to see this spectacle for the first time in my lifetime. And, who knows,I may see another one if I’m lucky!

Don’t forget, we add images to both our Facebook posts and our news posts on our website in between newsletters so you can always catch up on our current activities there.

In case you’ve forgotten some of what we do, we’ve taken a 30-second promotional slot with Southern Counties Auctioneers. If you’re attending, watch out for the screen with the ads.  It will be shown in Salisbury and Cirencester.

5’ high  post and rail fence

Part of a larger fencing project, a 5ft (1.45m) high post and rail fence as part of a cattle handling unit.   We have been fencing for The Gourmet Goat Farmer at Avebury (or on Facebook here) constructing a new cattle handling unit.  In addition, we’ve carried out various other fence repairs and replacements prior to livestock going out for summer grazing – if spring arrives!
