The Nag's Head is much abused and it is not unknown for sign writers to portray an old woman on the sign.
However, here we have a horses head. A nag was a pony or small horse let out for hire. It was not unusual then, for The Nag's Head to appear in places like tis one, on a major route into a city. This one is on the Great North Road a short ride from the city of London.
