Origins of "Seven Stars" as a Pub Name

The constellation of Ursa Major, also known as the Plough, has seven stars. This constellation is a popular motif for pub signs, and it is thought that some pubs called "Seven Stars" were originally named after the constellation OR as a slightly obscure link between farming and "The Plough" (Ursa Major).

The number seven has long been associated with good luck and prosperity. This may have been another reason why some pubs were named "Seven Stars".

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.

Did we miss one?

With so many pubs across the UK regularly opening, closing, changing hands, changing name it's a non-stop job keeping our database up to date!
