Traditional slate fence made from waste slabs or off cuts from the local slate quarries. They are a common and distinctive type of boundary in North Wales near the slate quarries where lower grade slate was plentiful, and a convenient alternative to stone walls and earthern banks. In recent times, as the quarries have ceased production, their use has largely been replaced by wooden posts and sheep netting. The base of the slabs are dug into the ground and two strands of galvanised fencing wire are interwoven along the tops to hold them together. This one has been used as the boundary to a small wood. It stands about 1 to 1.25 m high. The jagged open top deters sheep from jumping them and the fence is strong enough to keep cattle in or out.
