5. Bell, Stag’s horns. This house now only known as the sign of the “Bell,” was formerly called the “Bell and Horns.” About fifty years ago, it was kept by one Anderson, who had his “horns” over his door, to denote that persons were sworn there as well as at the Gate-house. Wright, the then landlord of the “Red Lion and Sun,” determined not to be outrivalled, and hung out a pair of bullock’s horns so enormous in size, and otherwise so conspicuous, as to eclipse the “Bell and Horns;” at last, all the public houses in the village got “horns,” and swore in. It is within recollection that every house in Highgate had “the horns” at the door as a permanent sign. 6. Coach and Horses, Ram’s horns. 7. Castle, Ram’s horns. 8. Red Lion, Ram’s horns. 9. Wrestler’s, Stag’s horns. 10. Bull, Stag’s horns. 11. Lord Nelson, Stag’s horns. 12. Duke of Wellington, Stag’s horns. This house is at the bottom of Highgate Hill, towards Finchley, in the angle formed by the intersection of the old road over the hill, and the road through the archway to Holloway. It therefore commands the Highgate entrance into London, and the landlord avails himself of his “eminence” at the foot of the hill, by proffering his “horns” to all who desire to be free of Highgate. 13. Crown, Stag’s horns. This is the first public house in Highgate coming from Holloway. 14. Duke’s Head, Stag’s horns. 15. Cooper’s Arms, Ram’s horns. 16. Rose and Crown, Stag’s horns. 17. Angel, Stag’s horns. 18. Flask, Ram’s horns. This old house is now shut up. It is at the top of Highgate Hill, close by the pond, which was formed there by a hermit, who caused gravel to be excavated for the making of the road from Highgate to Islington, through Holloway. Of this labour old Fuller speaks, he calls it a “two-handed charity, providing water on the hill where it was wanting, and cleanliness in the valley which before, especially in winter, was passed with difficulty.” 19. Fox and Crown, Ram’s Horns.
