So we purchased a refurbishment project house last year, and whilst the inside is getting there, the garden is an absolute jungle of overgrown hedges etc. There is a 40m run of hedging, bits of fence and gaps between us and the neighbours house. It's full of a mix of all sorts (mostly brambles) and hasn't been maintained well for many years. The house has other hedges too and so I really want to remove this hedge (our boundary) as it's awful, the neighbours are also quite old and struggle to maintain their side. I've been thinking about a good quality fence down the run as it will be a lot less maintenance, but obviously not as pleasant to look at, but maybe a double slatted fence or something a bit classier might help with that. I'm struggling for other ideas, so thought i'd reach out to see what others have done. We'd be growing and landscaping the garden in front of the fence, but leaving a gap at the back of borders for ease of maintenance.
