No fencer listed in Plean yet.

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.

Plean is a village three miles south of Stirling, set in rolling farmland between Bannockburn and the Forth carseland.

It was historically a mining village and while the pits are long closed, the community retains a strong local identity.

Plean Country Park, on the site of the former Plean House estate, offers woodland walks, open grassland and a good network of paths.

Stirling is a council area stretching from the city of Stirling in the heart of Scotland's central belt northward and westward into the Trossachs, the Breadalbane hills and some of the most dramatic Highland landscape in the country.

The city of Stirling sits at the historic crossing point of the River Forth, the strategic gateway between the Lowlands and the Highlands - a position that made it one of the most fought-over places in Scottish history.

North of the city, the character changes rapidly: the lowland farmland of the Forth valley gives way to the lochs, forests and mountains of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park and further north to the remote glens of Breadalbane.

The council area takes in everything from suburban commuter towns like Bridge of Allan and Dunblane to Highland villages like Killin, Crianlarich and Tyndrum - an extraordinary range of landscape and settlement within a single local authority.

Transport links are strong around the city, with the M9, M80 and several rail lines converging on Stirling, though the Highland communities to the north rely on the A84, A85 and the scenic West Highland railway line.
