In the case of The Bell in the singular, there may have been a connection to the catholic faith. Many catholic churches have a single bell. The tradition of churches having more than one bell or a peel seems to be a British thing.
However, this pub is right next door to St Mary's Church. Churches in the UK often had just the one bell at the time of being built, more being added as funds allowed.
