Gloucestershire Pounds and Pinfolds
Broadwell, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 420395,227514
Described as Old Pound on the 1885 1:2,500 OS map on the northern part of The Green in the centre of the village. The site is now private housing with no trace of the old structure. Nigel Mills May 2021
Charfield, Wotton-Under-Edge, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 371773,191378
This pound is noted on the 1889 1:10,560 OS map and is now part of a private garden to the bungalow next to it, named not surprisingly, Pound View. It is approx. 8 mtrs square built of local stone. About two fields distant along the same lane is Poundhouse Farm. The Charfield Parish Council has suggested a possible link to the management of the pound by the farm in the 1800's but this has not been confirmed.

Donnington, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 419209,228048
Described in 1974 (Willmot Dobbie) "Drystone walling with vertical coping in good condition except north wall fallen with the farm providing the south wall. Used as garden and car standing". Adjacent to Weasel Barn Farmhouse the structure is shown but not named on any OS map. Now a garden, overgrown and walls have deteriorated. Nigel Mills May 2021
Saintbury, Broadway, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 411690,240115
A small structure shown on OS maps from 1885 but never named as a pound. Opposite Middle Hill Farm on Buckle Street. Listed in 2003 as a stable and attached pound circa mid C18. Now the garden of "The Barn" with low walls and gated entrances. Nigel Mills May 2021
Thornbury, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 363344,190603
This pinfold backs on to the loal lockup, shown in image, which was Grade II listed in 1984. The walls are a good 2 mtrs high and access is through a locked gate. Well maintained approx 20 mtrs by 10mtrs and used as a productive garden. It is not named on any OS map I could find, which is unusual for such a large structure, and the 1880 series of OS maps indicate it is witin the original walls of Thornbury Castle.
Nigel Mills May 2006
Westerleigh, Yate, Gloucestershire
Grid ref: 369921,179910
This pinfold looks to be at risk as one wall has already been demolished to increase access to the adjacent house. It is shown on the 1889 OS 1:10,560 map and the walls still in place are a good 2mtrs high.

Isle of Wight
Freshwater, Isle of Wight
Grid ref: 433600,086579
This pound stands close to a well on Poundgreen in Freshwater. Interestingly the 1862 OS 1:2,500 map names it as a "pinfold" on Poundgreen but the surveyor for the 1909 OS 1:2,500 map sensibly names it as a "pound" on Poundgreen, the name it retains today. A fine and carefully restored pound with walls approx 1.5mtrs high built of stone rubble, red brick dressings and curved coping. It is in the care of Freshwater Parish Council and the interior has been used for many years as a productive garden. Contributed by Brenda Hobbs November 2008

Bolton-le-Sands, Lancashire
Grid ref: 348488,468290
The early OS map surveyed in 1845 show this structure as circular and names it as a Pinfold.

It is now put to use as a public area, having lost part of the wall to road widening, with a plaque describing the function of a pinfold. Image contributed by Bob Calvert November 2022

Grid ref: 342503,44194
A small pinfold listed as Grade II in 1984. Constructed of sandstone rubble, some rounded, some triangular coping and with walls approx. 2mtrs high. Strange irregular shape adjacent to a small building. OS maps indicate it was the site of the smithy although a plaque names it as a pinfold.

Grid ref: 340047,442206
This circular pound is named on the 1893 OS 1:2,500 map and listed Grade II in 1967. Sandstone rubble construction with triangular coping on walls and above gateway, standing approx. 2mtrs high. In great condition due to the work of Wyke Community Ltd Community Programme according to a plaque. Another plaque says it is only one of six surving in Lancashire. Clearly an underestimate! Local word is that it was last used during the 2001 Foot and Mouth outbreak when a wandering large texel lamb was placed in it until the owner could be identified. Taken away eventually by DEFRA, it's fate remains unknown.

Lincolnshire Pounds and Pinfolds
Bourne, Lincolnshire
Grid ref: 510480,320125
A small circular pound stood at the roadside to the east of Bourne according to the 1880 1:2,500 OS map. It was still recorded on the later 1904 and 1930 editions but by the 1970's had been deleted. Today the road is much wider and trading estates abound in this area and not surprisingly there is no trace of the pound. Contributed by Michael Trolove, July 2021
Counthorpe, Lincolnshire
Grid ref: 500320,320210
The remains of this pound approx 4mtrs square, were discovered but so obscured by an overgrown hedge that the extent of it left was difficult to judge. It is beside a tight narrow steep banked road west of the village which supports the East Coast Main line railway. It is shown and named on the 1888 1:2,500 map and shown but not named on later versions. Contributed by Michael Trolove, June 2021.
Little Humby, Lincolnshire
Grid ref: 500250,332890
A pound is named on the 1888 1:2,500 OS map on The Green but the actual pinfold site is difficult to pinpoint. Today the area is a grasssed triangle bordered by Main Street and The Green. Area appears to be a conservation area with, for no discernable reason, a circular hedged area. Contributed by Michael Trolove July 2021

Hougham, Lincolnshire
Grid ref: 488731,344759
In good condition with an apparently later front wall and gate added in brick with corner pillars probably as the result of road widening in the early 19thC. This changed its hape from an oval structure to a composite shape with two square corners added to an original oval shape. It is on the 1889 1:2,500 OS map as a pound. Located just north of the junction of Main Street and Coach Road, near Hougham. In splendid isolation adjacent to a small industrial site, opposite Holly Tree Farm.

Another vanished pound noted on the 1889 OS 1:2,500 map on a sharp bend south of the village. Peculiarly shown as a circular pound in 1889 and a square one on the 1905 OS, probably due to either poor surveying or a later rebuild. Contributed by Michael Trolove July 2021
Rippingale, Lincolnshire

A major historical monuments in the village beside the main road so easily noticed. A brick built pinfold with glazed tile top, maybe slightly rebuilt due to road improvenments. A large five bar gate allows easy access and the information panel recalls the loss of three RAF airplanes from local bases. Also named as Haxey Pinfold on a wall stone.
