      @@cjcadventures it’s very sad, but it had no listed status of any kind and it had been sold for “alternative use”… there wasn’t really an alternative use for that building so I think the writing was on the wall before the fire. After the fire it stood no chance.

    Apparently it was one of the most haunted pubs in the country....with multiple ghosts 👻 . Now they've been 'displaced', where will they go? .... probably some will disappear forever (like the building), while others will remain in and around the site of the pub.

      It really is a massive loss as a kid it was the first pub I ever went to when you're a young age you always read fairly tales and going there always reminded me of the story of little red riding hood and going through the woods and I might find a wolf in the pub it's so sad I really hope it gets Rebuilt it won't be that building but at least we would still have the crooked house 🏡
