Message and bee mural painted onto the end wall of the Bee Hive Inn shortly after the Manchester Arena bombing on 22 May 2017 LinkExternal link .

The bee was first adopted as a motif for Manchester during the industrial revolution, and seven bees are included in the crest of the city’s arms, which were granted to the Borough of Manchester in 1842. At the time the bee represented the hard work of Mancunians and the textile mills that were commonly described as hives of activity, with the workers inside them compared to bees. But following the horrific terrorist attack, it has come to represent Manchester’s “defiant spirit”.
