Signs at the closed Wild Garlic,ex Talbot in Iwerne Minster. The Hall and Woodhouse Badger sign is not so common nowadays and the weather vane showing a hunting scene relates to the original name of the pub, the Talbot being a now extinct hunting dog. The old sign of the pub was a heraldic representation of a black dog, being the coat of arms of the local family named Bower.
