the leaning house of Himley

Pisa may have its leaning tower, but Britain has a crooked pub! Glynne Arms in Himley, also known as Crooked House, has the possible advantage of seeming distinctly un-straight even before you swig.
Cum in an av sum hum brewd erl
Stop as lung as yom erbul
At a public called the Siden House
Weer the beer runs up the terbul.
