Concrete block masonry retaining walls buttressed

    I have a concrete block retaining wall around my garden, on the other side there is a public footpath.
    From my side of the wall from the top of the wall to soil level is 1.5 meters on footpath side it is 2.5 meters from top of the wall to the footpath, there are Buttresse around every 3.4 meters apart.
    I am looking to extend the height of the wall with wooden fencing by 1 meter however I am worried this may put too much stress on the wall in heigh winds any ideas?

    hit and miss fencing will reduce the affect winds will have,
    check with the LA, you might need planning to do this.
