Origins of "Lamb" as a Pub Name
The lamb is a symbol of innocence and purity. 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 to relax and enjoy themselves without any worries.
The lamb is also a symbol of Christianity. Many pubs were originally built near churches or other religious sites, and the name "The Lamb" may have been chosen as a way to reflect this association.
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.
