“Britain’s wonkiest pub” has been destroyed by fire just days after it was sold to a mystery buyer.
Marston’s, the brewery, confirmed last week that it had sold the pub to an unidentified buyer, reportedly for alternative use.
The 250-year-old property was famed for its lopsided appearance, which was caused by subsidence and which made it look as if coins and marbles could roll uphill along the bar.
Firefighters and police were called to The Crooked House in Himley, West Midlands, at 10.45pm on Saturday evening.
