@suesouthwood Thank you for your comment. I'm not sure whether the original meaning originates but here is a couple of the definitions -
in conflict with someone; having reached an impasse (about something), strongly disagreeing, engaged in a quarrel or dispute.
This term may have come from some earlier meaning of loggerhead, referring either to a blockhead or stupid person, or to a long-handled iron poker with a bulb-shaped end that was heated in the fire and used to melt pitch.
