It's Fence Day!
There are a lot of fences in this new neighborhood of mine, but this is one type I have never seen before.
This fence with it's unusual top goes around (or use to), most of the city block. I am not sure when the fence was built, but the property owner, from 1893 to 1944, owned a brick contracting company here in Fort Worth, Texas. The old home, which faces the next street, is being renovating. I will post about it on another day.

The owner used his bricks very well for this fence, maybe he had some left overs.
ReplyDeleteIt is a pretty brick wall, does a good job protecting the property. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty dangerous on top, very formidable.
ReplyDeleteA very sturdy looking brick wall, but I don't like it - I'd rather see the house and garden behind it.
ReplyDeleteI never saw that kind before also, but I think he had to do something special, since he owned that factory :)
ReplyDeleteHave a fine day

Wow that is one cool looking brick wall. The top is really unique.
ReplyDeleteDon't think I've ever seen a wall with a top like that before.
ReplyDeletevery interesting and unique!
ReplyDeleteAt least they do not have to worry about replacing it.
ReplyDeleteHi Janey, stopping over from Good Fences. This is a lovely wall. I like the decorative top. Never seen anything quite like that before.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting top to the wall.
