Just seen your message! The fence is made from pressure treated softwood boards simply nailed to the posts. The boards are 95x19mm smooth planed with rounded edges.

I think we will need something that she won't be able to dig under - my recollection of chicken wire is that it's quite flimsy and may curl at the edges - or have I got that wrong?

Oooh... lovely! I always wondered what volcanic ash looks like, now I know:). Fence does seem a bit in your face but if you leave it it will age to a weathered silver over time. If you do want to paint it dark then I agree with other comments that it would look best with lots of green foliage in front. I’d perhaps go for a contrast with a very pale green or French grey. Check out this blog for some ideas: http://rockmystyle.co.uk/on-the-fence/ And I would definitely paint the chair a nice bright colour such as bright blue, or pink, or yellow, or purple or....... :-)

My instinct would be that it may have needed a proper treatment before now. I'm surprised that maintenance wasn't mentioned, though many people like the greying. Bleaching does depend on exposure and the direction the fence faces - usually south. Mould/green growth usually occurs on the northerly side, so it's weird that you have both on one side. Are you sure it's mould? Could it be tannins coming to the surface? I would try a decking cleaner or even cheap soda crystals on a small patch. If that works, do the whole thing. You will need to oil/preserve it soon after, but not within 48 hours. You could try something else with a fungicide in like Barrettine wood preserver.

Assume you'll need some type of gate at top of opening at top of stairs? Is it going to be permanent? If not, I'd just put wooden fence with gate to open at top of stairs, then in a few years or so you can remove it. Cheaper and temporary, they're only young a short time.
