This type of wavy brick fence is quite common in England. They’re also known by several other names such as crinkle crankle wall, sinusoidal, serpentine, or ribbon wall. They were originally used in ancient Egypt but are now built as a structural or garden wall. And while they use less bricks than conventional brick walls, their curves provide the necessary stability to keep them from falling over.
