Fencing in Ryhall

Fencing in Ryhall: what is involved

We put up closeboard timber fencing on concrete posts with gravel boards, and premium composite and aluminium slatted fencing on aluminium posts, with matching gates and screens.

Ryhall, with Belmesthorpe, sits on the River Gwash just north of Stamford, with stone cottages around the green and the church, and later estate housing. Being so close to Stamford, many homes here were built by the same post-war and modern housebuilders.

We cover Ryhall (PE9) and the villages around it, including Belmesthorpe, Essendine, Great Casterton, Little Casterton and Uffington.

Ryhall specifically

Ground and conservation in Ryhall

Ryhall is on the limestone, which generally drains well, but the Gwash runs through the village and ground near the river is wetter. We check each site before choosing between a soakaway and channel drainage. Limestone often sits close to the surface in Ryhall, so post holes can hit rock; we break out to the right depth rather than setting posts short, and watch for old fill near the house.

Ryhall has a conservation area covering the historic village and no Article 4 direction, so normal permitted development rules apply outside listed buildings.

Listed buildings need consent, and some estates have planning conditions on front boundaries. Listed buildings and the Ryhall conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed.
Does the ground in Ryhall make a difference?

How high can my fence be?
Up to 2m without planning permission, or 1m next to a road or footpath used by vehicles. Higher than that needs an application.
Composite or timber?
Timber closeboard is the best value and lasts well on concrete posts. Composite and aluminium slatted fencing costs more but never needs painting and stays looking new.
