"Antique" fence boards
We have a fence in the garden of our listed building home, with standard posts, but boards like I've never seen before. They are 6 feet wide, with straight vertical edges, but variable in height from perhaps 6" to 9". Neither horizontal edge is straight, so they have a very rustic appearance, and they are also tapered like featheredge boarding. They are clearly very old..
Does that make sense to anyone? What are they called? Where could I get them? They are all pretty much past their sell-by date! |

Right. That sounds/looks right. Presumably the bark falls off with the passage of time. Rather pricey! But many thanks. |

Yep,. sounds like tree trunks have been ripped into boards and the variable height of the boards is due to the original tree trunks varying like that. What are they called? Where could I get them? No reason why they couldnt be ripped from new tree trunks of the appropriate size. They are all pretty much past their sell-by date! |

I'm not sure why it's pricey - it's cheap for the sawmill to make because it includes the edge of the trunk, they don't have to trim and discard that piece. Unless you're looking at say oak (when it'll be expensive anyway)? Find a local sawmill who should be able to help. For a randomly selected vendor, this is about 3 quid a meter for example: https://co2timber.co.uk/waneyedge.php Theo |
