Eckington bus station serves Eckington and is on Pinfold Street. The other executive producers were Dorothee Pinfold and Ian Fairweather. The old pinfold dates back to the twelfth century.

There is no mention of "Pinfold" in his diary or in letters. Waugh worked on the Pinfold novel intermittently during the next two years. Blicester has invited his friend Lady Pinfold and her daughter Dora to lunch. Nearby there is a pinfold, built to hold livestock, but now a picnic area. The experience was fictionalised a few years later, in "The Ordeal of Gilbert Pinfold" (1957). Prime Minister David Lloyd George owned one such property, Pinfold Manor on Nursery Road. "Gilbert Pinfold" was published in the summer of 1957, "my barmy book", Waugh called it.
