A.3 Fence Route: clear vegetation or other obstructions along fence routes. Remove any humps and fill any hollows with compacted soil to provide a clear way, permitting unobstructed passage on both sides of the fence, approximately level or with smooth undulations. B. B.1 Posts and Struts Steel Posts set in concrete are to have spragged ends.

B.2 Straining Posts: provide at spacing specified in BS 1722-10 in straight runs and at all ends, corners, changes of direction and acute variations in level.
