We were asked if could put up couple of gates and bit of fencing for the international supreme sheepdog trail Daylesford Organic a couple of weeks ago. That turned into a bit more. But it’s looking good. It’s on this Friday Saturday and Sunday (11th,12th and 13th) All welcome and lots going on so looks like a good day out. Also a speed shear on the Friday night which is looking like a good event so make sure you get there at somepoint

This must be up there with the ultimate long lasting pheasant pen using FETRA Fence StowAg. Deer netting with rabbit netting attached and 4 hot strands for predators and keep stock off the pen.

Capital Grants 2026 Update: FG1 & FG2 Fencing Grants and SHINE Features

We have received the welcome news that the Capital Grants 2026 scheme will open for applications on 30 July 2026, providing farmers with the opportunity to apply for eligible capital items, including FG1 and FG2 fencing grants.

Farmers planning to apply for the FG1 and FG2 fencing capital grant items should be aware of an important requirement when their proposed fencing is located on a SHINE feature identified through the Historic Environment Farm Environment Record (HEFER).

Under the Capital Grants 2026 rules, fencing can be used for a range of eligible purposes to support agricultural and environmental objectives. However, where the proposed fencing is located on a SHINE site identified through the Historic Environment Farm Environment Record (HEFER), farmers must obtain written approval from their local authority historic environment adviser before carrying out the work. In the previous round of funding, it was not possible to erect fencing on a SHINE site. DEFRA have effectively softened the rules by allowing fencing on a SHINE site, with the prior consent of the local authority.

To obtain approval, farmers will need to contact their local authority historic environment adviser by email and provide the relevant details of the proposed fencing works to support their request.

We appreciate that these requirements may be unfamiliar, and obtaining written approval can involve more than simply submitting an email request. Our Agricultural Team strongly encourages farmers to seek guidance and support throughout the process. We can help you understand the requirements, identify when approval may be needed, and provide assistance in preparing the relevant information to support your submission to the local authority historic environment adviser.

If you are considering applying for FG1 or FG2 fencing grants and your HEFER identifies a SHINE feature, please contact our Agricultural Team on 01832 732241 for support before starting any works.

As most know you take the highs with the lows. This isn’t all the issues this week only the ones I got photos off. It’s not all fancy gear and meterage. Won’t be much made this week. ££😢. Just part of business and some have it worse. Just keep pushing on

Pleasure to judge the NFYFC national fencing comp last weekend. Fair play to everyone in the final. Didn’t got to plan for some teams but standard was brilliant came down to a 4 points difference between first and second(marked out of 100)
