Default Requesting information on hedges

Hi

I am after putting in a hedge about 25 foot long to hide a brick wall
but only have a very narrow border at the side of a path, approx 20
inches.

I need it to grow at max 5 foot high but can be trimmed to about 18/24
inches thick.

The brick wall is approx 2 foot high.

Would be grateful for any feedback.

Pete




First thing that comes to mind is Pyracantha, flower, berries for the
birds in the winter, a good deterrent to any body wanting to climb over
the wall.
Choice of berry colour.
