Pub called The Tilted Barrel is now Britain’s wonkiest boozer following loss of Crooked House

The 200-year-old pub, in Tipton, West Midlands, is just five miles away from its demolished counterpart The Crooked House which was burnt down in a suspected arson attack. The slanted premises is also wonky due to mining subsidence but unlike the Crooked House, the site is Grade II-listed, which will help protect its future.

Landlady Haych Mann, 38, who took over The Tilted Barrel in February, said it was ‘bitter sweet’ to possibly be the new ‘Britain’s wonkiest pub’. Haych has spent several months refurbishing the run-down premises - which has wonky door frames and tilted floors - to give it a new lease of life.
