We have some living in the jungle behind our house very close to central Liverpool.
Not a bother to us and they keep the rats at bay.
Question is, just how agile are they, can they get up and over our 6’ fence, could they jump onto our potting table then onto the shed and onto the wall, table to shed under 5’ shed to wall 4’.
Any Foxy experts ?

Yes. Foxes can climb over 6 ft fences, so what you've described wouldn't be a problem. They can also dig under fences too. But, they're only going to do that if there's something in it for them, such as a good food source. If you keep anything tempting in sealed containers they'll go elsewhere.

Urban foxes could probably pick the locks on your house and steal your fridge.

Brad, being robbed by Foxes is less likely than Locals in Toxteth...
