    Not used them before but looks like you put it up against the post, (as in picture, right side towards the panel) put 3 screws through the holes to secure to the post - two on each side of where the panel is going, one near the top, one nearer the bottom, slide panel into slots. The panels would end up sitting on front of the posts.

    I think the big hol is just so you can get a drill or screwdriver in to screw into the solo screw hole.

    In this case distance between posts has to be smaller than the panel width - something very unusual.

    TBH, I don't see how this bracket works. It seems to be unique to Wickes - Timber Fence Panel Fixing Clip | Wickes.co.uk - and I don't see any information there. In How to install a fence video on that page they use different brackets.
