About Fencing in Sidmouth
Sidmouth in Devon was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as a small fishing village before becoming a fashionable Regency seaside resort in the early nineteenth century, its population more than doubling between 1801 and 1851 as Georgian houses and terraces rose along the seafront. Queen Victoria lived as a baby at what is now the Royal Glen Hotel, and her father, the Duke of Kent, died there in 1820.

Types of Materials found in Sidmouth

Coastal properties should account for salt laden air, which can shorten the lifespan of untreated timber, while inland areas tend to have better shelter.

Do I need planning permission for a fence in Sidmouth?

Does Sidmouth's weather affect fencing choices?
Sidmouth's coastal, salt laden air can accelerate wear on untreated timber, so a good quality preservative treatment is recommended for fencing near the seafront.
