The title Duke of York is usually given to the second son of the monarch. The picture appears to be of Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany (1763-1827), who is associated with the Grand Old Duke of York nursery rhyme. In this he was supposed to have marched 10,000 men up a hill and down again. In the background of the sign some soldiers can be seen marching up a hill. Image
