A PINDER was an employee of a landowner who would go around and collect the rental dues from the tennants on the land.

If the tennants could not pay in money, the PINDER would take livestock in lieu of payment and put them in the PINFOLD until they could pay.

Also, the PINDER would catch any livestock that had got loose and put them in the PINFOLD and would charge a price to the animals owner to get it back.
