Origins of "Beehive" as a Pub Name
Bees are symbols of industry and cooperation. This may have been appealing to some pub owners, who wanted to create a pub that was seen as a place where people could come together and work together. Bees are also symbols of community and belonging. This may have been another reason why some pubs were named "Beehive".
What's a Canonical Name?
To simplify searches, each pub on our database has a Canonical Name - usually a shortened version of its full name missing out any common prefixes and suffixes like "The Old", "Inn", "Tavern" and so on.
This means that "The Old Crown", "The Crown Inn" and "Ye Olde Crown Taverne" are known canonically as, simply, "Crown".
We've also dropped the "The", standarised with "and" instead of "&" and in some cases simplified pluralisation.
