Can
a fence be removed if it is causing an obstruction ?
Yes - for further information please go to obstructions
on public footpaths.
Is it legal for an electric
fence/barbed wire fence to be erected next to a path
In certain circumstances yes. Electrified fences should have notices at
regular intervals informing the public. If the fence causes an inconvenience
by making the right of way narrower, please complete the service
request form and an officer will then contact the landowner.
