Pub serving a wide range of real ales on Bridge Street to the south of the town centre. The pub was originally built in 1914, replacing an older establishment demolished as part of a road widening scheme - Bridge Street has always been the main thoroughfare into the town from the south. It was the brewery tap for the old Northampton Brewery which stood opposite - a site now occupied by the vast Carlsberg brewery. The pub has had various names over the years, including the Tudor House and Barney Rubbles, but was re-named the Malt Shovel by the present owners when it was acquired in 1996.
