If you look under Kept Animals, and under galvanised wire you will find Peasticks recommending

www.hillsofdevon.co.uk/netting.html

and twave suggests screwfix

Hope that is of some use.

Usually your local fencing contactor is the best bet.

They have more choice and there is always a chance of getting 'roll ends'!

Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

I found the best place for cheap mesh was Asda - strange but true

Last year it was 7.99 for a 20m roll

What about your local freecycle.   Go on line to find it.    You usually have to offer something first.   I have had water butts, slabs, a shed,  as well as children's bikes.   Just a thought.
