Rail ends are all rounded on the pre made pannels, they have just cut them down straight on cut sections… bodge!

Overall they look smart to be fair, better than the old rotten gappy fence! Just be nice to see a little bit of care and attention to detail!!

Been a pain this 1 but hopefully put back together by Friday. The ground is full of crap.

Just concreted with post mix. 80cm down.
You can add percussion driven ground anchors near the top if the ground is liable to add pressure. This is sandstone so no need, you could leave it as you dug it and it won’t move.
