Crooked House rebuild would be ‘very complicated and costly endeavour’

Black Country Living Museum, which displays recreated historical buildings, says it is not able to save demolished Staffordshire pub

Ever since it burned down and was then demolished last week, there have been calls for the Crooked House pub in Staffordshire to be rebuilt from scratch.

Andy Street, the mayor of the West Midlands, told the local council he wanted to see it rebuilt brick by brick (using as much original material as possible)", and a Facebook group calling for it to be rebuilt has attracted more than 10,000 members.
