Locals are monitoring site 24/7 and are ready to lock up 23,000 bricks they hope can be used in a rebuild
Affectionately named Camp Wonky, a group of Black Country residents are nearing the end of their second week keeping a 24/7 watch of the site where the Crooked House pub stood.
“It’s not exactly how I expected to be spending my summer,” laughed Emma Smith, from Kingswinford, who has been visiting the camp every day with her young daughter. “But we’ve become one big family, it’s been nice. And now we can see what’s going on [with the pub], we all feel a lot happier, we can actually sleep at night.”
