The Crooked House was a pub in South Staffordshire, England. Its name and distinctive appearance were the result of 19th-century mining subsidence which caused one side of the building to be approximately 4 feet (1.2 m) lower than the other. It was known as "Britain's wonkiest pub", and optical illusions inside the building made objects appear to roll uphill. Located in Himley in England's Black Country, the building was originally an 18th-century farmhouse before it was converted into a pub in the 1830s. It was sold in July 2023, and on 5 August was gutted in a fire; two days later it was demolished. Police are treating the fire as arson, and investigations are ongoing to establish the circumstances of the fire and the lawfulness of the demolition.
