Everything you need to know about Estate Fencing
Estate fencing is more than a practical boundary, it is a statement of style and functionality.

A feature of grand estates and rural landscapes, in this blog we’ll help you understand estate fencing and what types of fencing you could use around your property.

Understanding Estate Fencing

Originally crafted from wrought iron, estate fencing was used to define the boundary of large estates, parks and agricultural land. The design not only served a practical purpose but also added elegance to the landscape.

The Purpose and Benefits of Estate Fencing

Boundary Definition

Estate fencing can help to distinguish a clear boundary between properties. This enables perimeters of properties to be drawn, avoiding any trespassers, or neighbourly disputes.

Security

While estate fencing isn’t primarily for security or property protection, it can help to deter any unauthorised access. Also, in an agricultural setting it can help to contain livestock within designated areas.

Durability

Dependent upon the fencing that you choose to go around your property, will depend on the longevity. However, First Fence’s product ranges are all manufactured using high-quality materials and pre-treated where necessary to help fencing solutions be robust and long-lasting.

Aesthetic Appeal

One of the main benefits of estate fencing is the visual appearance. The design of chosen fence can help enhance the current landscape and overall aesthetic of the property.

Estate fencing is suitable for a range of landscapes and architectural designs, including;

Residential Properties

Parks and Public Spaces
