Summary[edit]

Description
English: Brockham Pound. The pound lies at the eastern end of a minor road running east from the green, itself known as Brockham Green. The sign on the gate reads: "The Pound. Brockham's own Act of Parliament (1812) allowed only poultry to depasture the Green. Cattle or horses were impounded until a fine had been paid to the Lord of the Manor." The Act would have been the Brockham and East Betchworth (Surrey) Inclosure Act 1812, which parcelled up and inclosed the common fields and common land in the surrounding area, but left intact the common land in the village centre, which had long since become the green.
