Laxton pinfold
The village pinder was responsible for rounding up any straying animals and holding them in the pinfold. Owners had to pay a fine to retrieve them. It was essential to deal with straying animals because in the open field system they could get onto other people's land and destroy crops. This is a reconstruction of the original pinfold which was adjacent to this spot.
