Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sign for the Greyhound at Bromham The heraldic reference of this name is to the Dukes of Newcastle, owners of land and property in many parts of the country. Usually the greyhound itself is shown. It has also been know as a gazehound, because it relies more on sight than smell. The greyhound was formerly used in the chase, but is now mainly associated with greyhound racing, or 'greycing'. The 'grey' of greyhound has nothing to do with the colour, but is a different word of uncertain origin.
