How can i bodge this leaning fence?

[SideWinder]

Sooo i am helping Mum sort out the garden/give it a clear out. There was a lot of ivy/random stuff and it has caused a fence to lean due to the weight.

My first thought was rope tied to the top of the fence post and pulling it and pegging it to the ground (surrounded by plants so not visible). It doesn't go totally upright..probably 10 o clock if that makes sense.

I am not that savvy with this type of stuff so just a bodge really until we get all the fence replaced later this year.

Urgh how do i resize...

@SideWinder do you own the grass strip?

Yah!

If you’ve got access to a 3D printer you could print a couple of brackets and get a 2x6 piece of wood. We had some problems after the winds some time ago, so this is in place until we can sort the fencing out

No access to a 3D printer. I like your solution though...just unsure i have decent space on the other side.

Push it straight and jam wood inbetween the fence and the wall. Or fix it properly and dig it out and re secure

This may be a good idea...maybe even a kinda slim metal rod type thing..

Right, I'd dig a hole approx 9-12 inches deep on the other end, jam a timber of min 75 x 75mm in there at an angle up against your fence post. Drill 2 level holes through it towards the existing fence and stick some 150mm screws in there. Back-fill and compact the earth in the hole. All in all should cost you about £10.

So a hole inside the garden yes? Will clear more space and see what i can do there.

Thats not ivy thats Wisteria and you've really hacked it about, oof

No no on that strip outside.

Ahh ha thank you!

Np. Have a crack at it and if there's any issues I'll try to come up with other cheap options for you!

Sorry just to clarify...so with the 75 x 75 timber, put this one straight up yes? Then pull the one that is leaning towards the new one, drill to combine?

Can tell this is all new to me but determined.

Oh wait so have the new post leaning against the fence post but bolted...? To stop it from falling? As opposed to having the new post set up straight and then pull up the current post?

Mm feel like it would be a decent first 'man thing' to do.
