About Fencing in Whitley Bay
Whitley Bay is a seaside town on the North Tyneside coast, its long sandy beach and the ruins of St Mary's Lighthouse on a small tidal island giving it a distinctive coastal character. Once a major Victorian and Edwardian holiday resort, the town has seen significant regeneration in recent years around its seafront and Spanish City, a restored historic dome that was once a famous fairground and entertainment venue. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the NE26 postcode area. Local tradespeople listed here can advise on the right fencing for coastal properties and offer a free quote.

Types of Materials found in Whitley Bay
Whitley Bay sits on the Northumberland coast, where the underlying Coal Measures bedrock of sandstone and shale meets glacial boulder clay deposited across much of the wider North East during the last ice age. Ground closer to the immediate coastline can include sandier, more mobile material linked to the beach and dune system, while streets further inland generally sit on the more typical clay dominant ground found across the region, holding water and draining slowly after sustained rain.

Is the ground in Whitley Bay suitable for fence posts?
Ground near the immediate coastline can be sandier and more mobile due to the beach and dune system, while streets further inland generally sit on the more typical clay dominant ground found across the region.
Do I need planning permission for a fence in Whitley Bay?
Most fences up to two metres in a back garden, or one metre facing a road, do not need planning permission in Whitley Bay. North Tyneside Council can confirm any extra rules for properties near the seafront conservation area.
Does Whitley Bay's coastal position affect fencing choices?
Being right on the North Sea coast, Whitley Bay properties face strong onshore winds and salt laden air, so pressure treated timber and galvanised or stainless fixings hold up considerably better than untreated materials.
Where can I dispose of old fencing in Whitley Bay?
North Tyneside 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.
