Default Border - security and visibilty

Xref: kermit uk.rec.gardening:156021

I'd like to plant a border rather than put a fence up on one of my
boundaries. I need it to be quite high (6 foot-ish),thick so you can't
see through it and also needs to be extremely painful to climb
through. The longer the spines the better.

What are the best plants to use?

Cheers!


Pyrachanthus, hawthorne, berberris, holly etc.
My personal preference is a mixture of Pyracanthus which is evergreen and
has nice berries with hawthorne.
It is good for birds to nest in too.
