	fencing: a practical handbook Elizabeth Agate Properly built, functional fences are essential for land management. Their main use in conservation is to protect newly planted or regenerating woodlands and coppices from browsing animals. Fences are also essential to permit grazing of pastures, downland, heaths and other semi-natural areas. A good fence will look neat, do the job, and last for many years. A badly built fence will cause constant problems. This handbook gives comprehensive information on all aspects of fence construction, including strained wire and post and rail fencing. The construction of stiles and gates is also described in detail. 134pp more on fences, gates & stiles Price: £14.95

	fences, gates & bridges: a practical manual George A Martin A reprint of a book first published in 1887 that illustrates every type of wood and wire fence and gate you can imagine and some you probably can't. Excellent resource book - if you understand how fences work you are bound to build better ones. From the foreword: the author knows his subject, not only fence building but the farm and its requirements. He knows the stock: the unconfinable pig, the dexterous cow. He knows his materials, especially wood. I count twenty-one species of tree in the text, each especially suited for a particular application. He knows the value of work well done, done to last, and he aims to give value himself, in authorship as in the building of simple necessary structures. 192pp more on fences, gates & stiles Price: £9.95

	build it!... with pallets Joe Jacobs Often found abandoned at the back of factories, at dumps or even in skips, the humble pallet for many practically minded people, represents a huge source of inspiration as well as a challenge. When skilfully broken down into timber and smartened up, they can be refashioned into chairs, tables, fences, gates, chicken arks, planters, sheds, decking, cladding and many other functional items. Joe Jacobs shows you how to become a ‘pallet nerd.’ He shows you what kind of pallet to look for, the very best techniques for breaking down the pallets safely – an art in itself, and then goes through the best ways to refurbish the wood and provides over 20 plans for tables, fences, chairs, planters and other items of indoor and outdoor furniture. ‘Build It...with Pallets’ is the ideal companion for anyone who views towers of pallets not as an eyesore but as an inspiration and an economical source of wood, making them the ultimate recycling solution. 144pp more on fences, gates & stiles Price: £9.99
