The Compiler wishes to express his great thanks to Miss E. P. Harrison for her courtesy in allowing him to use not only the title but her large collection of names.

He also desires to state his indebtedness to the standard work of Messrs. Larwood and Hotten for much valuable information, and further to thank the many friends who have told him of signs both odd and otherwise.

FOREWORD

(After a writer of A.D. 1707)

I'm amused at the signs

As I pass through the town,

To see the odd mixtures:

A Magpie and Crown,

The Razor and Hen,

The Leg, Seven Stars,

The Scissors and Pen,

The Axe and the Bottle,

The Tun and the Lute,

The Eagle and Child,

The Shovel, The Boot.

NOTES

Unless otherwise stated, the House is situated in a London street.

1. A personification of malt liquor, alluded to by Robert Burns. Three barleycorns equal 1 inch.

2. A heap of Barley; Saxon—mowe; Italian—mucchio. Appears in Hogarth's print 'Beer Street.'

3. Horse and Dorsers or Dorsiters. An old rendering of 'Pack Horse.' Sometimes found as the FRIGHTED Horse, a corruption of 'freighted.'

4. Now a private house. Taylor the water-poet alludes to the incident of the River Nen overflowing its banks and carrying away a man asleep on a hay-cock. The old signboard illustrated this event.

5. Strike—the round piece of wood used in levelling the struck bushel.

6. Larwood and Hotten state that this sign is found in the neighbourhood of nursery gardens.

7. Refers to the Heart of the Holy Virgin pierced with swords.

8. Commemorates 'England's Wooden Walls.'

9. On a board is written:

This gate hangs high and hinders none

Refesh [sic] and pay and journey on.

10. May refer to the Papal Hand raised in blessing. See Bishop Hall's 'Satires,' Book V., Sat. 2 (Larwood).

11. During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries the Turks were the bugbear of Europe. Similar signs are Black's Head and Saracen's Head and Negro's Head. Negroes with feathered heads were often seen as tobacconists' signs.

12. In this house King Charles I. was given up to the Scotch Commissioners.

13. This tavern alludes to the Duke of Bedford, ground landlord of the district. Pope recommends the house for its cuisine.

14. Lode—a ditch that guides water into a river. (Dr. Brewer.) This inn is situated in the Fen district.

15. One of the oldest licensed houses in England. The Pope's Head in Cornhill was a famous tavern; the alley still remains.

16. This inn has a sign representing this politician with a copy of the North Briton under his left arm.

17. An obsolete term for a large hunting dog. Cf. PACKHORSE AND TALBOT.

18. One that carries baggage. Cf. PACKHORSE, HORSE AND DORSERS (note).

19. Common as a perfumer's sign in Europe. The Civet is said to produce musk. (Larwood.)

20. Jocularly called 'The gentleman in trouble.' Formerly a starting place for coaches.

21. Once called 'Pig and Whip.' Tradition has it that the present sign refers to a surly tenant.

22. A mammoth beast born at Ketton (near Darlington), which toured England on exhibition at fairs, etc.

23. Baldfaced—a term applied to animals which have a white strip down forehead to nose.

24. Alludes to a fabulous monster supposed to have been discovered at St. Osyth, in Essex, in the reign of Henry the Second. (Larwood.)

25. The Grasshopper was the crest of Sir Thomas Gresham, and may still be seen on weathervane of the Royal Exchange.

26. The papal arms.

27. Scutch—to strip hides. (Dr. Brewer.)

28. The Rising Sun in Islington Road gives notice in 1726 that a fine hog will be Barbecued—i.e. whole roasted, stuffed with spice, basted with Madeira. (Larwood.)

29. These seven stars seem to be the same that are used as a masonic emblem.

30. The Rainbow in Fleet Street has the reputation of being the smallest licensed house in London.

31. Cock and Pymat. Synonymous with Cock and Magpie, or Cock and Pie. Larwood also calls it Pynot.

At the Cock and Pymot, Old Whittington, Derbyshire, was plotted the Revolution of 1688 by the Earls of Danby and Devonshire, and Mr. D'Arcy. (Hone's Table Book.)

32. Pyewipe—a local name for the peewit.

33. A house much adorned by artists.

34. A famous carrier's inn, whence passengers and goods were dispatched to the North.

The ceremony of nicking the Royal and Corporation swans on the Thames still continues.

35. A fine brand of hops used to be imported from Würtemburg.

36. Best known as a landmark in the University boat race.

37. Said to derive its sign from Queen Elizabeth having sheltered there. Called in parish books of 1586 'The Queen's Tree.' (Larwood.)

38. Larwood states that this sign is very rare. He gives it the epithet of gloomy, referring to Psalm cxxxvii. 2.

39. Probably alludes to the Druids.

40. From Virginia came the first tobacco brought into England.

41. The best known Tabard was that inn in Southwark whence Chaucer and his party started for Canterbury. The tabard, a sleeveless jacket, still worn by heralds.

42. Does this refer to the thirsty reputation of cobblers?

43. Cravat. Derived from Croats. Introduced into France 1636. (Brewer.)

44. A sign of great antiquity. It is found in 1562, and was probably originally a tobacconist's sign.

The Calves Head Club met at the Black Boy, Newgate Street. Variations of the sign are the Arab Boy, East Sheen; the Black Boys, Aylsham.

45. Stow mentions a Black Bell in Fish Street Hill.

46. This may refer to some ghostly hound.

47. This inn is extinct. The name is a variant of leather bottle.

48. The Black Lion appears in the arms of Queen Philippa, Consort of Edward III. Also borne by Owen Glendower.

49. The badge of Richard II.

In the garden of this house is the old sign that used to be in Piccadilly on site of the present Criterion.

50. The White Horse in Kensington was frequented by Addison.

51. This house figures in the adventures of Mr. Pickwick.

52. Badge of Edward IV.

53. Refers probably to Robin Hood, or combined as Green Man and Still was found as a herbalist's sign. (Dr. Brewer.)

54. Lincolnshire seems very partial to blue; we find the Blue Man, Boar, Dog, Fox, Bull. Larwood also mentions in the same county—Blue Cow and Greyhound.

55. Larwood supposes this sign to refer to the marriage of James I. with Anne of Denmark.

56. Badge of Cadwallader, ancestor of the House of Tudor.

57. The Red or Roan Horse. Washington Irving's Inn. The badge of Pedro of Castille, father-in-law of John of Gaunt.

58. The House of Martlesham has a lion painted in Post Office Red supposed to originate from a Dutch vessel taken at Sole Bay 1672.

59. Thus the old nursery rhyme

I had a bonny nag

His name was dapple grey

He would bring me to an alehouse

A mile out of the way.

Pope also refers to 'Dappled Flanders mares.'

60. In 1861 there were in the West Riding alone no fewer than 77 inns, etc., bearing this sign. (Larwood.)

61. This sign appears to be unique. Pied.—Variegated; spotted like a magpie.

62. Sorrel. A reddish-brown colour. French—saure.

This and the Chestnut Horse, Great Finborough, refer to the County Breed of Suffolk Horses.

63. This inn bears a pictorial sign with the words 'intactum sileo.'

Larwood also mentions Bell and Bullock; Bell and Lion; Bell and Candlestick.

64. Larwood also mentions Crown and Woodpecker (corrupted from Wool Pack); Crown and Fan (a fanmaker's sign); Crown and Rasp (used by Fribourg and Treyer, tobacconists); Crown and Can; Crown and Tower; Crown and Thistle.

65. This sign refers to the Royal Champion's (Dymoke) appearance at the Coronation ceremony.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
