Talk:Loggerheads, Staffordshire

Wikipedias own article describes the term "Loggerhead" as... an 18th century tool for reheating drinks. It consists of an iron cylinder about 2 cm. in diameter and 5 cm. long affixed to an iron or wooden rod. It is used by first putting it in the fire until it is heated red, then the red-hot metal is plugned into a cup containing the cold drink... if this is the case then it would surely come as no surprise that a "loggerhead" should be associated with a Pub or Hostelry?
