| Fencing |
Exmoor Woodlands supplies and erects all types of agricultural and equestrian fencing, including traditional post and rail fencing (round timber, square or rustic), plain wire stock fencing and deer fencing.
Oak & Chestnut Cleft Fencing
Exmoor Woodlands specialises in oak and chestnut cleft fencing and are happy to work in almost any location, from large farms to smallholdings and equestrian yards and even areas with access problems.
Each rail is individually clefted using traditional methods with an axe and morticed into the post. All the posts are cut out with a chainsaw. The natural curves and character of the wood is worked with so posts are not uniform, creating an attractive appearance. The fencing can either be all oak, or a chestnut and oak mix. The fence can be designed with either two, three or four rails, to a maximum height of around 6ft.
In between the rails, plain wire is drilled through the posts, making the fencing stock proof for sheep or cattle.

| Equestrian arenas and Loose Schools |

As well as the erection of safe, sturdy and secure equestrian fencing, they will help you to create and build an equestrian arena or loose school to your own requirements and specific location - of vital importance to those living in National Parks or environmentally-sensitive areas.
Andrew is used to working on unique projects and past clients include racehorse trainers requiring loose schools for starting young horses and point to point yards.
Exmoor Woodlands carry out all construction and project-management work, including ground preparation and drainage, as well as the supply and erection of post and rails and delivery and laying of a suitable base - most surface types can be arranged, including woodchips and sand and rubber.
Exmoor Woodlands will even help to repair existing arenas and loose schools that have been neglected or accidentally damaged.
