⛩️ Fencer in Pathhead, Midlothian
This one’s up for grabs.
About Fencers
A fencer installs and repairs fences, gates, and boundary treatments - from standard timber panels and close-board fencing to post-and-rail, stock fencing, and bespoke garden screens.
Scotland's weather puts fences under serious pressure, so proper posts set in concrete and treated timber make the difference between a fence that lasts and one that blows over in the first winter.
Check boundary ownership before commissioning any fence work - your title deeds or the Land Register of Scotland will confirm which boundaries are your responsibility.
About Pathhead
Pathhead is a conservation village on the A68 about four miles south of Dalkeith, strung along a single main street on the ridge above the Tyne Water.
The village was established as a planned settlement in the 18th century, and its long, straight main street of stone-built houses gives it a distinctive character.
Oxenfoord Castle and Crichton Castle are both nearby, and the surrounding countryside is rolling farmland with views towards the Lammermuir Hills.
Pathhead has a primary school, a village shop, and a community hall, with Dalkeith providing the nearest full range of services.
About Midlothian
Midlothian is a compact council area immediately south of Edinburgh, stretching from the city bypass to the edge of the Scottish Borders.
It takes in the valleys of the North and South Esk rivers, the northern slopes of the Pentland Hills, and a string of former mining communities that have reinvented themselves as commuter towns and growing residential centres.
Dalkeith is the administrative centre, but Bonnyrigg is the most populous settlement — and Penicuik, set against the Pentlands, has the feel of a self-contained town in its own right.
The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Newtongrange, Gorebridge, and Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley, and has driven significant housing growth across the region.
Midlothian is one of the fastest-growing local authority areas in Scotland, attracting families and professionals who want proximity to Edinburgh without the city price tag.
