WHAT DOES STILE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

stile

Stile

A stile is a structure which provides people a passage through or over a fence or boundary via steps, ladders, or narrow gaps. Stiles are often built in rural areas or along footpaths to allow access to an adjacent field or area separated by a fence, wall or hedge. Unlike a gate, there is no chance of forgetting to close it, and should the stile break, the fence remains intact. However, stiles may well be difficult to use for some disabled people and people with limited mobility.

Definition of stile in the English dictionary

The definition of stile in the dictionary is a set of steps or rungs in a wall or fence to allow people, but not animals, to pass over.
