It's been discussed at length in the thread and I've posted pictures of a method that worked for me. Basically a threaded rod in the base of a fence post, rubber grommet from electrical suppliers, epoxy adhesive in the hole in the top of the wall. It allows you to adjust the angle once you've fixed it so that you don't have to drill perfect holes.
New bifolding door means we'll be needing a fence or screen where next doors picket fence used to be just fine. Ideally the fence will decrease in height as it gets away from the house so as to maximise the view.
The section of fence nearest the house will have to run on a patio, and to continue in a clean line it would then have to sit on top of the boundary wall. Or I will have to replant a young beech hedge a foot further away from the wall so I have space to put the fence behind.
Anyone have any thoughts on how complicated or expensive this could turn out to be?
