More about this scene
Of the old inns of the Fylde, the Shovels, once called the Malt Shovels, is one of the oldest in Over Wyre. It began as an alehouse. The present building dates from 1760, but there have been additions; the bay windows, for example, were put in around my mother's birthday in October 1888. Like most inns in the Fylde, the Shovels brewed its own beer, and a malt kiln was installed—hence Kiln Lane.
