Replacement 150 m post and rail fence around an outdoor arena at Manton Grange, near Marlborough, along with a few running repairs.
The new arena had recently had a new riding surface and the fence was also past its best so it was time to replace it with new post and rail.

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!

e’ve now come to the end of phase 1 of the stock fence work on top of Wiltshire’s second-highest point. We had erected 6000m of stock fencing on the top of Tan Hill.
The first two images go back to mid-December, with the third as at mid-February.
“Tan Hill (grid reference SU081646) is a hill north of Allington in the parish of All Cannings, Wiltshire. Its summit is 294 metres (965 ft) above sea level and is the second highest point of the North Wessex Downs AONB hill ran ge (the adjacent Milk Hill is 295 m high), and of Wiltshire. Interestingly it is also the third highest point between Bristol and London”. (Thanks to WIKI.)
Following long delays, our clients recently took possession of their small holding at Winsley, with 10 acres of unkept land and gardens to secure mainly to keep livestock and young children out of harm’s way.
Here’s Tristan Warden rock spiking before driving in posts for goat fencing at Bradford on Avon using our Protech Evo 3 to drive the posts. The hydraulic rock spike on this Post Driver is just the job for rocky and solid ground, using it to make a pilot hole first.
We have erected a mixture of 60m x 4ft picket fencing around the house. We also fitted a mixture of goat and stock fencing in the paddocks, all on creosote timber posts for longevity- 500m stock fencing 1.2m high, with gates, with one strand of barbed wire on top.
