Local knowledge
Fencing in Skipton: what matters locally
Around Skipton, fencing has to cope with harder winters and more wind than in the lower valley. Solid posts, good footings and properly treated timber matter.
Rural properties in villages like Embsay, Gargrave and Hellifield often need post and rail or stock fencing as well as garden fencing, and it often has to sit alongside dry stone walls rather than replace them.
Planning is handled by North Yorkshire Council. Villages inside the Yorkshire Dales National Park, such as Grassington, come under the National Park Authority instead, so check which applies before a big boundary change.

Questions
Fencing questions from Skipton
I'm in a village near Skipton. Who handles planning?
North Yorkshire Council, or the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority if you're inside the park. Fences within the normal height limits usually need no permission either way, but check before removing old walls or building anything unusual.
Is this free for me?
Yes. You never pay us. The fencer pays us for introductions, and you deal with them directly for the quote and the work.
Who will contact me?
One local fencer, named on the form before you send anything. We never pass your details to more than one business, and we never sell them on.
How high can my fence be without planning permission?
Up to 2 metres in most places. Next to a road used by vehicles, or the pavement beside one, the limit is 1 metre. Higher than that needs planning permission, and so does any fence around a listed building. Some estates and conservation areas have extra restrictions, so check if you're unsure.
Which fence is mine, left or right?
There's no rule that it's always the left-hand one. Ownership is shown on your title deeds or plan, often with 'T' marks, and you can get a copy from HM Land Registry. If the deeds say nothing, agree it with your neighbour before replacing a shared fence.
Timber or concrete posts?
Concrete posts don't rot and suit exposed gardens. Timber posts look softer and are easier to fix later. Plenty of people use concrete posts and gravel boards with timber panels. The fencer can tell you what suits your ground and how windy your garden is.
