About Fencing in Newark
Newark on Trent held out for the Royalist cause through three separate sieges during the English Civil War, positioned as it was where the Great North Road and the Fosse Way cross the River Trent, making it strategically vital to whoever controlled it. The town's castle, where King John died in 1216, still overlooks the river today alongside a well preserved market square.

Types of Materials found in Newark
Newark sits at the edge of the Lincoln Edge, a north to south limestone ridge running from Grantham up to the Humber, formed from Jurassic Lincolnshire Limestone that has been quarried and farmed since Roman times. Ground in the town itself is generally a mix of river terrace deposits linked to the Trent and the limestone influenced soil typical of this part of Nottinghamshire, with ground closer to the river tending to be softer and more prone to flooding, a known feature of the town's history.

Do I need planning permission for a fence in Newark?

Does Newark's position on the Trent affect fencing?
Properties near the River Trent have a documented history of occasional flooding, so it is worth discussing fence post depth and material choice with your installer if your garden sits close to the river.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Newark?
Nottinghamshire County Council operates household waste recycling centres in the area that accept timber and garden waste. Many local fencing contractors will also remove your old fence as part of the installation.
