Does anyone have an idea how I could best or most sensibly fence the boundary considering the slope? I was thinking of an 80cm (31.5 inches) double wire mesh fence in gray. We both like that, but with a new slope height of 80cm (31.5 inches), wouldn’t that be pointless? Higher would probably look like a prison wall because of the L-shaped concrete blocks.
My wife doesn’t want conifers?! :-(

You still need an 80mm (3 inch) fall protection barrier there. A simple wire mesh fence will do. On the slope in front, avoid grass and use ground cover plants that hold the soil in place. Grass is too steep there; you would need a two-stroke mower, otherwise the oil lubrication will fail. But grass would also work then. K.

Or self-driving four-legged mowers! Yes, ground cover plants will probably go on the slope! Something that doesn’t require mowing. Landscape fabric and decorative gravel are out for aesthetic reasons (gray on gray), even though they would be low-maintenance. I can’t say yet how steep the slope will be. The area has been shaped, but the topsoil is still missing. It might end up being 1.60m by 0.80m (5 ft 3 in by 2 ft 7 in) or just 1.20m (4 ft).
I never really thought of the fence as a necessary fall protection.... hmm, so the fence will 1. probably have to be installed, and 2. sooner than expected!
