This type of fence can have 2, 3, or 4 rails depending on what is required.
A wire netting can also be fixed to the rails, such as rabbit wire to keep out pests, of C8/80/80 stock wire to keep in sheep and lambs.
The larger mortised posts are set at 2.7m centres with a smaller prick post driven into the ground in the centre of each bay and nailed to the rails.
Post and Rail Square Sawn and Mortised
Mortised post and rail fencing is an attractive and practical way of fencing in live stock. The rails pass through the bigger posts making them secure on either side of the fence if they are pushed or knocked by larger animals.
