The Ship and Shovell, Craven Passage, Strand, London, England, Great Britain
Strand area.

Craven Passage crosses Craven Street and continues under Charing Cross Station but just before it goes under the station is this Victorian pub - the Ship and Shovell. Its novel feature is that it is in two halves - one each side of Craven Passage. There is, apparently, a cellar which connects the two halves under Craven Passage.

Carry on down the steps to the archway below Charing Cross Station.
