The Kirk Maughold pinfold stands on the old road from Ramsey on the east side of North Barrule. It is an enclosure which measures about 13 square metres, defined by drystone walling of mountain type with no mortar used. The walls are 1.5 metres high and in good repair. The entrance is in the centre of the eastern wall but it has no lintel stone. Each parish was responsible for the maintenance and repair of its own pinfold, but their origins are uncertain although a statute of 1422 confirms customary laws were already long established by that time.
