Ox tethers are enclosed or open air ox stalls, where cows are tethered and restricted to sitting or standing while being loaded with goods. Places that are difficult to reach due to lack of roads, that depend upon paths for access, commonly depend on oxen and baskets for transport. This is especially true of mining hamlets and thorps, which ship stone or metal ores.

While being loaded, an ox is held in place by a chain or strap under its neck, restricting movement and forcing the animal to remain standing. When not being loaded, cows are untethered and allowed into a yard, often an area that's naturally enclosed by stone outcroppings or riverbanks.
