A fence is a structure as defined in Ch. 40C and is not exempted from review in the Old Cambridge Historic District.

“…the word ''structure'' means a combination of materials other than a building, including a sign, fence, wall, terrace, walk or driveway.”

I am doing some research into whether any communities with Local Historic Districts regulate fencing.
If your community's LHD considers fencing in any way other than a category of project to which review does not extend/is exempt, what language and definitions are used?

Thanks very much-
