Apply the old 3,4,5 rule. 3 foot along wall, 4 foot along fence and 5 foot
for the hypotenuse to make the right angle.

We wish to straighten and 'position correctly' the garden fence that we
share with a neighbour in an adjoining terraced house.

What is the best way to get the fence at exactly right angles to our
houses?
The garden is about twenty metres long. Thanks for advice.

==================================
Get a large sheet (6' x 2')of chipboard or an old door and lay it flat
with one short edge along the wall of the house. Use this board as a
'square' and run a string line along side it to give you a straight line
at 90 degrees to your houses.
