Before the advent of railways, goods were moved around, either by canal where they existed or by road by horse and wagon. In an early form of courier delivery, pubs would often act as pick up or drop off points.
The spelling here is the older 'double G'.
There are also three signs on offer here, an old, weather-worn one and two, back to back that are a little newer.
