Description
The destruction of The Crooked House has been deemed a wrongful demolition.
South Staffordshire Council has said the total destruction of iconic pub, after it was gutted by fire in August, was not lawful and that investigations into the cause of the blaze will continue.
The comment comes amid public outcry, with videos of the pub off Himley Road, between Himley and Dudley, being knocked down, and photos of the resulting rubble being shared widely on social media.
