    In Kirkstall, Leeds, I believe that it is something to do with hounds (the pub sign shows a huntsman with a pack of hounds).

    I never remember the names of pubs. I never remember getting home afterwards either.

    I've heard of The Cock, Welwyn, but I've never bothered to check whether it really exists. There used to be one in Welwyn called The Clock, next to the A1.

    Ive got a pub called the 'Steam Passage' up the road from one of my current clients, thought it may be a gay bar / pub, but its actually a straight up british boozer. http://www.fullpint.com/fullpint/images/pubs/330.jpg

    Is that down Harrow way? I've been in there.

    I've also been in the Speed The Plough in Barton, but I'm not sure it's there anymore.
