That would normally be the case, perhaps, but I'm not sure that it would
apply in this case, where the owner of the fence has been warned in
advance that it is very shaky.

Well it has been supported with a makeshift ground anchor and rope, and
it comfortably survived the strong winds on Monday evening, so should be
ok until a proper repair can be done.

I think timber struts would be better Adam; say ten feet plus.two by
one would be enough. (they can always be used for something else
afterwards) They, fixed to some two to three foot stakes whacked in
the soil at an angle would really secure the fence in both directions,
whereas the rope would only do it in one.
