5-hole wooden stock at Oakham

I wondered why there were five holes and this is the explanation I found out: 
Five-hole stocks originate from Roman times when the arms, legs and head were confined which was more a form of torture than a shaming punishment.
It is more likely with the Oakham example that juveniles or women could have both legs confined to one hole so they could not wriggle free. Sometimes men were also confined by one leg alone. It is also believed that more than one man could be detained at a time, probably on alternative sides.
