Surely the restriction is that your boundary shouldn't injure the user
of the right of way using it as such?


Quite correct. We are just about to have a wire fence erected the full
length of a Council Owned Playing Field. Wire on Concrete posts, leaning in
at the top with barbed wire on.

Climbers and vandals beware

Quite INCORRECT.
"...[ ]..If the deterrent causes a nuisance or by your negligence injures a
passer by, then they may be able to sue you...[ ].."
This includes fence/wall toppings that are at an accessible height, I.E.
2.5m and lower adjoining a public right of way (although there are great
regional variations, this is a good rule of thumb).

But surely if you can only become injured by clambering over said
wall/fence, you cease to be a passer by and become an unwelcome visitor
