[Tagging] Horse yards / corrals

What do we call fenced off yards that are used to hold horses (or other
stock, for that matter) temporarily?

This was one that I spotted the other day

They are the yards at the local show grounds where horses are kept waiting
for their event.

At the time, I marked them as stables, which I know is wrong, as there is
no roof of any sort, so I've since deleted it.

There doesn't seem to be any tag that really suits?

It's not farm_auxiliary, because it's not part of a farm

Could be animal_keeping, but again, that seems more involved with raising
stock, rather than temporarily holding them in a yard?

The other spot that this would apply to is yards at meatworks, sale yards &
similar.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Graeme
