Most common An authoritative list of the most common pub names in Great Britain is hard to establish, owing to ambiguity in what classifies as a pub as opposed to a licensed restaurant or nightclub, and so lists of this form tend to vary hugely. The two surveys most often cited, both taken in 2007, are by the British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) and CAMRA. As pubs have closed in response to changing habits, numbers have fallen, so the historic surveys remain of interest. According to BBPA in 2007, the most common names were: Red Lion (759) Royal Oak (626) White Hart (427) Rose and Crown (326) King's Head (310) King's Arms (284) Queen's Head (278) The Crown (261) According to CAMRA in 2007 they were at that time: Crown (704) Red Lion (668) Royal Oak (541) Swan (451) White Hart (431) Railway (420) Plough (413) White Horse (379) Bell (378) New Inn (372) A more current listing can be found on the Pubs Galore site, updated daily as pubs open/close and change names. In 2019, the top 10 were: Red Lion (558) Crown (509) Royal Oak (432) White Hart (317) Swan (296) Plough (294) Railway (294) White Horse (286) Kings Arms (245) Ship (244) Curiosities The pubs with the shortest and longest names in Britain are both in Stalybridge: Q and The Old Thirteenth Cheshire Astley Volunteer Rifleman Corps Inn.
