Inn sign of C17/C18 origin, but largely or wholly renewed in C20. On either side of the road are square posts about 6m high, supporting a timber beam across the road with a diagonal brace at each corner. A painted metal figure of a magpie surmounts the beam, surrounded by wrought iron scrollwork; beneath it is a hanging sign with the Brewery name. Traditionally believed to have been used as a gibbet for hanging highwaymen. N.M.R. Included for group value.
