split rail
Rustic fence type
Split rail refers to a type of rough-hewn fence made from logs split lengthwise into rails, traditionally stacked in a zigzag pattern without nails or posts.
The style is associated with rural America and frontier life: a split-rail fence bordered the pasture.
Split rail also describes the rustic, unfinished wood itself.
Abraham Lincoln's nickname "the Rail-Splitter" came from his youthful work making such fences.
