The cheapest option would be natural hawthorn. But if you must put up a fence, then just a three foot one would suppice, but paint the top with non drying pain (available from most DIY stores) and as long as you place notices informing people it is non drying paint then they will have no recourse.

Razor wire seems too good for them.
