How did I miss it?!

Walking back from the creek today. I’ve owned this property for around 10 years. Today, I noticed this length of fencing. I’m guessing it was done a long time ago. Non-standard method, but it’s still holding. Kind of a treasure in its own right.

If you don’t see it, look at the angle brace between the posts. 👍🏼

Hog wire fence to keep in pigs and sheep. Been around since probably the 30s. Still available today!

There is a forked limb between the hedge posts, angled to provide strength and stability. Usually there is a steel brace or actual lumber serving that purpose.

I'm surprised that forked log lasted that long. That's pretty cool.

I believe it is hedge. I’ll check tomorrow.
