Morpeth fence post supply — pressure-treated softwood

Fence post is what most Morpeth fencers reach for first. Fence posts hold the fence up. Standard sections are 3×3" (75×75mm) for light or repair work, 4×3" (100×75mm) for typical 6ft closeboard, and 4×4" (100×100mm) for heavier loads, gate posts and exposed sites. Pressure-treated softwood as standard. We deliver across Morpeth and Ponteland and the wider Northumberland footprint — Next-day.

Whether you're laying a single back-garden run on a Ponteland or Darras Hall property or quoting a multi-house developer plot, the timber's the same: pressure-treated softwood, sized properly, dropped where you need it.

Common uses

New closeboard fence runs, post-and-rail boundary fencing, gate posts, replacement of rotted posts (often paired with a concrete spur).

How to install / use

Posts go in roughly 600mm below ground on 1.8m centres for 6ft fence. Concrete-set with postcrete or wet mix; some installers use post-spikes for repairs or temporary fence. 4×4 posts are the safe default for windier spots and gate posts.

What Morpeth looks like for fencing

Darras Hall plots are large and the existing fencing tends to be high-spec — when we replace, we replace like-for-like (often hardwood gates, painted closeboard). Posts go deep here, posts go painted, and finishes matter. The rural Belsay and Hartburn plots are the opposite — long agricultural runs where pressure-treated, no-fuss spec is the right call.
