Nov 24, 2022 · In this blog, I thought we’d cover some of the basics and help landowners to understand barbed wire regulations, showing what you can and can’t do and some of the key considerations when planning how to use fencing when it is close to a public right of way.

It is an offence to allow a bull in a field crossed by a public right of way, subject to the following exceptions: it won’t be an offence if either the bull in question is under 10 months old; or, it does not belong to a recognised dairy breed and is at large in any field or enclosure in which cows or heifers are also at large. The Wildlife and Cou...
The two most common factors where injuries or deaths have been reported to HSE have been cows with calves at foot and walkers with dogs. Wherever possible, cows with calves at foot should be kept in fields away from public access. Fencing then may be a particularly important consideration where land is limited and/or there are cattle that are not s...
Once you have decided to fence off the route, where to position the fence is not always straightforward as the position and width of the public right of way may not be known. It can be recorded on the definitive map and statement, which is kept by the surveying authority (county council or unitary authority). They may be willing to send you an extr...
The courts have made it clear that any encroachment such as buildings or fences on a public right of way will amount to an obstruction and can be a criminal offence. If the encroachment is noticed you may be required to remove it. This can be an expensive slip, particularly so if the route has been permanently fenced and this needs to be altered al...
It is sensible to set barbed wire or electric fences back slightly because if it causes a nuisance to those using the highway you may be liable for any damage caused and the Highway Authority can force you to remove it. It can help to ensure that barbed wire is not fixed on the public right of way side of the fence. Where an electrified stock fence...
Farmers should be satisfied that their gates and stiles are adequate to ensure that livestock do not escape, particularly so where a public right of way runs through them. In the case of Wilson v Donaldson [2004] a walker left a farmer’s gate open allowing cattle to escape to a derelict neighbouring farm and then on to a highway causing a serious a...
It is possible to apply for authorisation to the local highway authority under section 147 of the Highways Act 1980 to place a new stile or gate across a public right of way, where one has not previously existed. This power can be used where the land is being, or is going to be used for agriculture and the gate or stile is for “preventing the ingre...
The level of liability you owe to a person accessing your land depends on the reason they are there. You do not owe a duty under either the Occupier’s Liability Act 1957 in relation to visitors, or to trespassers under the Occupier’s Liability Act 1984 where people are using a public right of way. This does not preclude all forms of liability, for ...

Jan 9, 2012 · Cows will lean over a fence to reach grass or other vegetation, if its plain wire they just keep leaning until the fence is broken or flat. Barbed wire prevents this, I've lived next to a dairy form for over 20 years and have never seen a cow injured by barb wire.

Smooth (or plain) wire is essentially the same product as barbed wire with no barbs – either a two-wire twist or a single strand. Its primary advantage is that it is less likely to cause lacerations and cuts if an animal becomes entangled in it or rubs against it.
Barbed wire fences. Many farmers decide to install barbed wire fences on their premises. This type of fencing can offer excellent security for your farmstead. However, we recommend setting them slightly back from the public highway.
3. Barbed Wire A barbed wire fence or exposed barbed wire erected across a public right of way without an adequate means of crossing is an offence. It is an obstruction to the public right of...
