Sue Allan	Folklore: Odd pub names (412* d)	RE: Folklore: Odd pub names	22 Jul 08
Two late lamented Cumbrian pubs with odd names: The Heilk Moon (heilk pronounced helk)... which had the sign of a half moon, and the White Quey (quey pronounced why) which is some sort of cow, apparently. Both gone now, sadly. And the Throstles Nest in my native Wigton is named after the town;s nickname of Throstles Nest (why? no one really knows except that it nestles in a hollow)
