Can honestly say that I never noticed any difference between our fences and Brit fences. Ours have more centrist dad’s sitting on them maybe?

Sick of people calling me a West Brit fence.

I live rural and now I’m genuinely trying to think of any non curved farm gates I’ve seen. Struggling.

A lot of our 8′ fence gates have a rounded corner on the latch side – that’s what he means.
Obviously there are other types of fence that can exist in both here and the UK but like he’s playing off the probability
I think he’s actually trying to talk about the gate, not the fence? Most of the regular farm galvanised gates you’d get in the coop have a curved corner.
But it’s bollox, or at least lucky, I’ve got gate the exact same as that.
edit: out of curiosity I dropped into a few different places in scotland and the uk on streetview and all of the galvanised gates I found had sqare corners with a join where most of ours are indeed a 90 degree bend in the pipe stock around a radius.

I think he means our gates are rounded at the corners? Any near me are round, not square.
These videos are getting faker all the time. “Not an Irish fence its a British fence….” lol stfu
I’m sure that sounds impressive to americans who won’t know any better.

I think the traveler with the horse is the biggest give away 😂

I think it’s probably got to do with the corners of the gates – and he’s probably spot on. Drop a dot on google maps anywhere in the countryside and nearly every gate in the country does indeed have the rounded corners.

I think he’s talking about the gate. The kind of gate I have seen most often does have [rounded corners](https://tjomahony.ie/media/mf_webp/jpg/media/catalog/product/cache/4334ab7178e8d5dd05526e1c07d0457f/g/a/gatenomesh.webp).

Ours tend to have more wire and less wood.

It’s probably just more likely that the gate will be rounded in Ireland, rather than a definite thing. He is guessing off that probability.
I have a square one, but it’s very old. Square gates were common 100 years ago in a sheet style rather than tubular. I’ll go take a photo.
Sure our the shape of our fences was in the proclamation.
Ours are rounder at the top.
He’s talking about the gate not the fence. Our gates have curved/rounded corners. British gates have welded 90 degree corners
