Proposed Merger[edit]

As noted in the village pound article, there is no difference between a pinfold and a village pound, and thus no reason for these articles to be separate. Axeman89 (talk) 17:40, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like a reasonable suggestion for a merger. 21st CENTURY GREENSTUFF 18:11, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pounds in America[edit]

Perhaps unsurprisingly, pounds aren't solely a British phenomenon. Many towns in formerly-British New England still have surviving (though non-operational) town pounds where stray livestock were formerly impounded. Examples from several New England states can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/groups/nh/discuss/72157600351514773/ , http://www.flickr.com/photos/kevystew/4144709806/ , and http://www.flickr.com/photos/kevystew/3571004545/ , for example. 206.208.105.129 (talk) 14:37, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
