About Fencing in Bracknell
Bracknell in Berkshire was designated a new town in 1949 under the New Towns Act, chosen partly because its population of under 5,000 sat close to London, had a railway station and lay outside the capital's green belt. The Bracknell Development Corporation, formed later that year, set out to grow the town to 25,000 people, with its designated area later extended in the early 1960s to raise that target to 60,000, drawing in engineering, furniture and clothing manufacturers before the town's special new town status ended in 1982.
