Bee Hive Yard

Old Bee Hive Pub in 1938 , Norwich. George Plunkett’s photo reproduced by kind permission of J Plunkett

65-67 St Benedict's was named after the Bee Hive Pub which opened on Magdalen Street (no. 67) in 1822. Following its closure in 1935 it became an electrical wholesaler (as depicted in George Plunkett's photo). Both the premises and the Yard were destroyed during air raids in 1942.
