What are some ideas for a fence design?

Split Rail fences

A fencing design with a long history is split rail. Lumberyards carry posts with holes already cut in them and cedar or redwood rails for cross members. Pine will sag over time so the harder woods are the better choice. Split rail fencing may not provide privacy, but it can enhance the character of the architecture of the house or define a yard without natural boundaries.
