The Malt Shovel was situated on Main Street. This grade-II listed pub closed in 2017.

Listed building details:
Public house. c1700 with earlier origins and C20 renovation. Limestone rubble brought to course, stone slate roof. Central hallway entry, Garden facade: 2 storeys, 4 first floor windows. Plinth and rusticated quoins. Board door surmounted by 3 glazed panels in eared architrave beneath a broken segmental pediment containing C20 coat of arms. Sashes with glazing bars in architraves with pulvinated friezes beneath broken pediments, alternately segmental and plain. Gable coping, shaped kneelers, left end and ridge stacks. Doubled chamfered mullion windows to end gable. Interior contains several original chamfered cross beams and panelling and an open string staircase with elaborate bulbous balusters, all of which suggest a slightly earlier date than 1700 when a comprehensive remodelling of the facade may have taken place. C20 renovations resulted in blocking of central first floor window.
