National Trust – Sleeper Walls

Sleeper Walls

The partnership between Ashdale Fencing and the National Trust has proven to be a great success when it comes to boosting the appearance and usability of outdoor spaces.

Ashdale Fencing specialises in strong fencing options and recently finished an amazing project that involved the construction of sleeper walls at the Staunton Harold and Formark Reservoirs National Trust locations. These sleeper walls provide these beloved areas with a touch of natural beauty in addition to their function as retaining walls. Let’s examine the importance of these sleeper walls and Ashdale Fencing’s experience in providing top-notch fence solutions.

Just take a look at the sorry state the existing walls were in before we started to work to replace them. Click on the thumbnails to see a larger version.

The Art of Sleeper Walls

Because of its strength and resistance to decay, sleeper walls—which are constructed from UC4 ground contact sleepers—have gained popularity as retaining walls. These highly treated sleepers were used by Ashdale Fencing to build solid and aesthetically pleasing walls. The sleeper walls’ H-shaped portions offer superb stability and produce an interesting texture that improves the surroundings’ natural beauty. This harmonious blending of usefulness and aesthetic appeal demonstrates Ashdale Fencing’s skill in providing top-notch fence solutions.

The National Trust is famous for its dedication to conserving and protecting the beauty of our natural environments. National Trust: conserving Natural Beauty. This commitment is demonstrated by the partnership between Ashdale Fencing and the National Trust at places like Staunton Harold and Formark Reservoirs. The project’s use of sleeper walls was intended to preserve the integrity of the neighbourhood while also offering useful advantages including erosion control and slope stabilisation. The natural surroundings are harmoniously blended with these walls, boosting the overall charm of the National Trust locations.
