  • Description

    "Situated at the south end of the village green is the C18th Pinfold, a circular enclosure with a square headed doorway. As described here [[834815]] it was used as a temporary enclosure for stray cattle and sheep. Elsdon was a major centre for the cattle droving trade from Scotland to Morpeth and Newcastle."
