Fencing in Weldon: 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.
Weldon is an old stone village on the east side of Corby, famous for Weldon stone, the limestone quarried here for centuries. Its historic centre of stone houses is surrounded by later estates that now join it to Corby.
We cover Weldon (NN17) and the villages around it, including Great Oakley, Little Oakley, Deene, Brigstock and Stanion.
Ground and conservation in Weldon
Weldon sits over the limestone and ironstone that were quarried here, and ground can change from natural rock to clay or fill within a garden. The Willow Brook runs past the village, so drainage needs designing rather than assuming. Ground in Weldon can change within a single garden, so we dig the first post hole as a trial and set the depth of every footing from what we find.
Weldon has a conservation area covering the historic village, appraised in 2009. North Northamptonshire has no Article 4 direction in Weldon affecting driveways, porches or extensions.

Permissions in Weldon
- PlanningA fence, wall or gate is normally permitted development up to 2m high, or 1m where it sits next to a road or footpath used by vehicles. Listed buildings need consent, and some estates have planning conditions on front boundaries. Listed buildings and the Weldon conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: fences, gates and walls
