[@avv397]

Want to see the Crooked House rebuilt? It CAN be done ! Check out the Carlton Tavern in Maida Vale, London which HAS BEEN totally and exactly rebuilt after it was demolished without permission in 2015

Dudley is most definitely in the Black Country and a much blacker country than in the 1940s.

i only realised that it was called the black country recently because of coal.................phew
