Whether you need a fence that will protect large livestock such as cattle and horses, or an enclosure for a few chickens, or any size of stock enclosure, this guide contains a wealth of practical information and advice. The book offers guidance on purchasing the correct materials and tools, and the best retailers to do business with; the basic post-and-rail fence, including the ideal equestrian enclosure; and specialist fences for different livestock. It also covers dealing with variations in local topography, including fencing on slopes and crossing rivers and streams; adding stiles and gates to a fence; and advanced fencing techniques, including how to secure posts in shallow or soft ground.

Andy Radford became interested in the skills of fence construction when he worked with the Peak District National Park Authority. He runs a landscape business in North Wales and has acted as consultant, designer and contractor for a variety of clients, including schools and local government organizations. He has written articles on the environment for a number of periodicals, including the Guardian newspaper, and is the author of the highly successful A Guide to Dry Stone Walling [Crowood 2001].
