Shaftesbury

Shaftesbury is a community as well as civil parish in Dorset, England. It is situated on the A30 road, 20 miles (32 kilometres) west of Salisbury, near to the boundary with Wiltshire. It is the only significant hill negotiation in Dorset, being developed concerning 215 metres (705 feet) above water level on a greensand hill on the edge of Cranborne Chase. The town looks into the Blackmore Vale, part of the River Stour basin. From various perspectives, it is possible to see at the very least as far as Glastonbury Tor to the northwest. Shaftesbury is the site of the previous Shaftesbury Abbey, which was founded in 888 by King Alfred and turned into one of the richest spiritual establishments in the country, before being damaged in the Dissolution in 1539. Adjacent to the abbey website is Gold Hill, a steep cobbled street used in the 1970s as the setup for Ridley Scott's tv promotion for Hovis bread. In the 2011 census the town's civil parish had a population of 7,314.

    FAQs

    What is the cheapest fence to install?

    The cheapest fence to install is, generally, a pressure-treated pine wooden fence at around £20 per linear foot. This includes the materials and labour costs. Wire fencing is technically cheaper at around £5 per foot, but it’s not a great material to use in homes as it looks unsightly and doesn’t provide any privacy.

    Do I need planning permission for fences?

    Not if they are under 1 metre high if next to a road or 2 metres high elsewhere. It’s always recommended to check with your neighbours and the local authority if you are unsure. Other restrictions may apply, for example if a fence might impact driver visibility on nearby roads.

    Do I need to tell my neighbours if I’m going to replace my fence?

    It’s a good idea to talk to your neighbours before you start any work to avoid confusion along the way. But if the fence is definitely your responsibility and on your property, there’s no legal obligation to notify them. It’s also a myth that you need to erect a fence with the flush side without posts facing your neighbour’s property.

    How to build a fence?

    The best way to build a fence depends on what style it is, as different types have different components. However, fencing made up of posts and panels is pretty common. To put this up, you’ll need to start by measuring out and digging holes for your fence posts. Then you’ll need to fit the panels between them and use concrete to secure the posts in the ground.
