But it had an extended bracket below.

Both of the collapsed ones might have survived if fitted on such long

Yes, that is a better arrangement. But less visually attractive.

MUCH worse than 50 or 75mm posts on the outer edge IMO,
particularly when the outer edge is on the fence line so there
is no need to have a cantilever so she who must be obeyed
cant run into them.
