The Crooked House location has turned into a dumping ground, only a year after it was demolished.
Last year, the Crooked House made quite the splash in Britain. This unique pub, known for its tilted structure, captured the hearts of many. Sadly, it was destroyed in a fire just two days before it was set to be demolished in August 2023. The pub, which had been around for almost 200 years, had a special charm due to one side being 1.2m lower than the other, caused by an old subsidence issue.

Since its destruction, there have been efforts to rebuild the Crooked House. However, the former site has become a hot spot for fly-tipping, with piles of waste and debris scattered about. This has caused concern for local campaigners who fear the impact on the environment and nearby wildlife. Despite six arrests being made, no one has been charged and the suspects have been released on bail.

Members of the Facebook group "Save the Crooked House - Let's Get it Rebuilt" have been vocal about the issue, reporting the fly-tipping to the police. However, their efforts seem to have fallen on deaf ears as the problem persists. Recently, David Shotton, a member of the group, shared his disappointment after visiting the site. He described it as an "environmental disaster" and expressed concern for the long-term effects on the surrounding area.

Despite the setbacks, there is hope for the Crooked House to be rebuilt. The Facebook group continues to advocate for its reconstruction, even suggesting a brick by brick approach. One man, Chris Weaver, has taken matters into his own hands by creating a Lego replica of the pub. He spent 80 hours building it and claims it has a 95% likeness to the real thing. Although not quite the same as the original, it is a testament to the love and admiration the Crooked House has garnered over the years.

It is a shame to see such a beloved establishment reduced to ruins and used as a dumping ground. The Crooked House will always hold a special place in the hearts of those who have visited it, and it is clear that many are determined to see it rise from the ashes once again.
