This was the place where the pledged cattle were collected or guarded until their owner came to claim them.
According to the dictionary of the RAE, the Corral del Prendado was "El corral del Común": In some places of Cantabria and León, a place where the pledged cattle were kept and guarded until their owners claimed them, for having crossed the terms or lines within which they were allowed to graze, or to have entered communal lands or private property.
They were regulated by municipal ordinances, and the owners, in order for them to be delivered, had to pay the corresponding fine for lack of care.

On the sign of this "corral" there is a nice story that explains it.
