Good luck with it Mike. It's worth spending a little time working out the best places to locate a structure of any kind, because it's a pain if you have to move them!

It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
If you are still keen on the tree idea and have plenty of time, another suggestion is to plant a row of evenly spaced crab apple trees and then run wires horizontally along the top of the fence attached to stout posts at each end. You can then train the branches horizontally along the wires to make a beautiful screen which will give you flowers in spring and fruit in autumn. You could use other kinds of small trees for this as well. It's often used on larger trees like limes in formal parks. The technique is called pleaching and when they do it in commercial nurseries the shaped plants cost a bomb, but it just takes some time and patience at home:
