Thanks for your response. Would these have most of the growth in the upper
part as i still need to access the fence which is 6ft tall


We have a Quickthorn Hedge which is done in the conventional way, but we
also have one plant as a 'specimen' tree in a border. Bare trunk to about 4
ft to access the fence behind then 'ball' shaped top which goes to 7 ft and
then trimmed. You could have a row of these, say 2 feet apart, maybe closer
and allow them to grow to 5/6 feet trimming off the lower limbs as it/they
grow, then form a hedge on top to your desired height.

Fast growing so you will achieve what you want quite quickly and thereby is
the problem. Constant, say 3/4 times a year trimming which 'might' be a
problem heightwise and on the other side.
