[Update: by mid-2022, the outside of the building had been redecorated, and this metalwork had been removed. Among the new decor was a "No Horses to be Left Untied" sign beside the saloon door.] See Image for context. The setting is the west side of Castlehill Road, in front of a building that had been occupied for several decades by a Chinese takeaway with "Dragon" in its name; note the dragons in the lower half of the picture. The Latin motto at the top of the ironwork is "Virtute Tutus" ("by virtue secure" or equivalent).
