THE average UK fence can cost between £1,000 and £4,500 depending on garden size and fence panel height. But one savvy gardener built herself a fence and it cost less than £10. Angela Gill shared her DIY result on the Facebook group Gardening On A Budget, and received hundreds of comments.

Then, she had grown wild flowers between her grass and new fence to act as a barrier.
