Fencing around a pub

[Phil P]

It must be a rough pub if the kids are carrying something that will cut the wire !

I don’t think it would be a problem to be honest it’s not that bad of an area.

......You know, like, when developers buy up pubs, then run them down and gain planning consent because they are unviable?.........

Deer fencing sounds like your best bet!

I think he was looking for cheap fencing

Nothing's cheap anymore!!

something like clipex deer fencing. if you loose the tenancy you can always pick it up again.

4/5 strands of barb, nothing upsets a mother more than holes in your good clothes

As much as I’d really like too fence the footpath it isn’t really an option as it runs through the middle of a 200ac block

well I would say two 100 acre blocks is still big!

 

[FonterraFarmer]

Blackthorn, hawthorn, holly etc in conjunction with your fence should do the job.

Gorse!!!

He didn’t say a 200ac field!

 

[Phil P]

There’s 17 fields in that block, most separated by a footpath

And use fence posts with that black imitation creosote that gets everywhere when you are using them

I think I would fence round the pub garden with creosoted rails and then after it is up, add a second coat of a mix of creosote and old engine oil

Shoot a few and hang them up



Oh no, wait, that's pigeons...

You would be surprised how determined people can be. Even a barbed wire fence could become damaged with stretched wire and all sorts. Or they will find a way around it and cause damage elsewhere. Even seemingly reasonable people can be like this, they walk over from the footpath, find the new fence and don’t want to walk back, so find a way to get over..... just this once.

Like your thinking, I would put one of them through the combine, 100% problem solved.

hence the creosote and used engine oil mix, I know from using it on stuff here, that it takes a very long time to dry!

Bit of an update, spoke to the estates land agent about an unrelated subject earlier and she brought up that the pub had complained above water run off from our field running through there beer garden and car park.
Now it sounds like the estate are going to pay (probably me) to do some drainage work to try and sort the run off.
Now I’m thinking ditch deep enough to hold water (like a moat) then a fencing on the top to stop it been jumped across and best yet it sounds like the estate and the pub will be paying the costs .
I’ll keep the thread posted of any updates

Well done! Sounds like the sort of deal @Hfd Cattle would end up with!
