I put up a split rail dog leg fence when we moved into the new cabin to protect the garden. Later I fenced the whole are with modern fencing, but I retained the split rails and rebuilt the dog leg fence at the entrance to the front yard. They are easy to construct but labour intensive splitting and carrying rails.
