The Ship and Shovell is an unusual, and possibly unique Victorian pub, as it is in two separate buildings on either side of Craven Passage, Charing Cross, London, which are connected underground by a shared cellar.
Its name has its origins in either the coal labourers who visited the nearby Coal Hole or Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell.
The two former terrace houses were built in 1731–33, but later refaced. It has been Grade II listed since 1970.
It is run by the Dorset family brewers Hall and Woodhouse.
