Nag's-Head

I was a bit puzzled about the combination of the
second sign. However, it may be simply that there is another
Nag's Head nearby in Leicester City Centre and the 'Star'
was added for ease of identification. The Nag's Head is a
very popular pub sign and thought to originate from the fact
that a pony or 'nag' could be hired from an inn, most of
which had their own stables for visitors or coaches. The
first sign is located in Nuneaton. The original pub of this
name was a local pick-up and drop-off point for waggoners
who operated goods services to and from Atherstone and
Coventry.
