I would have thought that six foot would get the message across. If this is
too big, then I used to have a four foot high wall, which was 'topped off'
with trellis. The trellis was some covered with plants, Pyracantha is nice
and spiky to deter anyone hanging over the wall. This arrangement certainly
got the message across to our unsociable neighbours.

Wait a minute! The OP wants a fence that *doesn't* tell the neighbours
he's not interested in speaking to them. Difficult to talk over a 6ft
fence unless you're a lot taller than I am!

Hi

Just a few questions on fencing. (wooden, not fighting)

Is there an 'acceptable' height that seperates the gardens distinctly but
doesn't tell the neighbours you are not interested in talking to them?

What is the best type of fencing to get?

When is the best time to put a fence up?

And where would be the best place to go for either the materials or for
someone to do it for me?

I am in Glasgow and have my very first garden, a whole 20 metres by 10
metres. I haven't a clue what i am going to do with it once i get it
enclosed but the fence is where i need to start.

Any advice would be appreciated.
