<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">"Paling" was
commonly used for fencing where I grew up in Leicestershire too. In fact
until this question came up, I didn't think of it as anything other than a
"normal" English word.</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Not
in Sussex, Sandy, where there are still working chestnut
coppices soley grown to make chestnut paling fencing. Whenever I visit my
sister I drive past a large coppice which has coils of paling ready for use
stacked by the entrance.</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">But
I would agree that it is a very regional thing: here in Worcester layered hedges provide field
enclosure and hazel hurdles provide temporary enclosure,</p>

Beyond the Pale - I have always understood that it was the Irish Pale round Dublin that gave rise to
the expression. If you lived 'beyond the Pale' you just were not of the
right society and therefore not acceptable / receivable in the days of
such strict social levels.</p>
