unfenced
Lacking boundary walls
Unfenced describes land or property without a fence around it: The unfenced pasture stretched to the horizon.
By extension, it can mean unprotected or unrestricted: unfenced borders, unfenced possibilities.
The word appears most often in rural and agricultural contexts where the presence or absence of fencing matters for livestock and property boundaries.
