Why the little fence on the wall?
Did you run out of bricks?

Try square (or rather from the photo a combination square), surely? Try squares are used to do geometry and old school technical drawing

The feather edge fence in the earlier pictures looks as the nails have been fired in to the middle of the boards. In the pictures of the brick wall, they look like they are in the right place.
It might be advisable to return to the first job to fire the nails in to the right place so that the timber doesn't end up curling over time.

Right. And take out the old ones as well?

Yes, unless you like the split look - timber always expands and contracts more over the width (i.e. across the grain) than in the length
just a tip:
that short fence section on the wall, its a good idea to pack the frame off the bottom of the wall and finish the boarding 12mm short of the brickwork -that way water will run off
as it is the timber will sit on wet brickwork and will have a shortened service life
