GUEST,Pat | Folklore: Where did the 'Cockie.' (22) | RE: Folklore: Where did the 'Cockie.' | 01 Sep 16 |
I was told by my Dad that it meant the cocky watchman was keeping an eye cocked for any trespassers on bombed out / building sites . There is also the saying '' keep an ear cocked'' meaning look out for hearing something . |
