Rokeby station owner Mr Grenville Maser and Mr Tom Berber launched a 14 month big yard fencing project at Rokeby. The paddock development aimed to match the owner’s name with a notable custom build. Multiple paddocks were touched, with work sharing duties and transport considerations.
The report praises a new fence built with strong posts and long straight runs of nine and eleven miles. Experts hail the design as a lasting monument, noting that the timber resists borers and pests and remains durable despite weather, foreseeing the fence standing for a century.
