Put a post every 3 metres = 6 posts. Buy a roll of fence wire, a hammer and some staples.
£180 should be more than enough.
Next doors kids running into the fence wires isn't your problem surely.I

Seems to me that your challenge is getting your new neighbours to be annoyed with the council and not with you - Suggest you get them to talk to the council about it (so they experience the frustration!) and get quotes/put together a proposal.
But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.
