The Crooked House.

Built as a farm cottage in 1765, the pub was a victim of mining subsidence in the later 19th century that has resulted in one end of the pub now being 4 foot lower than the other. Despite being condemned in the 1940’s, the building was bought by Banks’ Brewery and restored it to what it is today.

Imagine walking out there drunk.. :tongue3: :D It aint funny... ::)

So you get to walk into a cool place like that, have an excellent pint of Bitter, then go out detecting in
areas with ancient artifacts ?
