Can anybody please tell the name of the 4 ft rods with a `u` shape at one end, that are inserted in the ground to hold Netting up. I have been told they are ROAD ? ? ? but have forgotten the last word and the chap who told me, is away on Holiday for 2 weeks.
Any Ideas of the last word --have tried various combinations to no avail.
know what you mean, tried searching for them myself a few years ago...eagerly waiting to hear the answer too!
pntalbot,
I think you mean fencing pins. Try this link to see if they are the ones.

Thanks Landimad thats the ones--- £32.99 for `10` with Screwfix, would have been interested if they had been cheaper, but I`m sure on my Allotment they would go missing.
Try looking in a builders merchant. I'm sure I bought some much cheaper than that last year. Yes, a quick google shows that screwfix are having a laugh on this one. Face it, they don't need to be painted do they?
Hi they are called road pins i have a few if you are near Oldbury in the Black Country.ATB Roy

Good price though....if you need 100.
Agricultural merchants are a good bet.
You could always try your local agricultural/ tut auction house
The one near us often has them in bundles of about 30 and they go for about a fiver the lot
