fencing advice needed - we have a 3ft-ish of brick wall between us and some noisy neighbours.
i'd like to put a more solid fence above the brickwall to block out a bit of noise/chatter.
my idea had been to use some bolt-down fence post holders and then add another 3ft of fence panelling above the wall.
The wall is in pretty good condition, the top course are laid on their sides and it's either been repointed or rebuilt with cement mortar rather than some old victorian guff.
Even though the wall is right between buildings so wind is fairly minimal, i think i should be more worried about the windloading and fence pulling off the top course of bricks?
I'm not keen on posts against the wall, which would probably be more sensible, becauese aesthetics.
any advice welcome
