2025 Crooked House pub inquiry postponed; ATE Farms appeals against South Staffordshire Council's fire-related enforcement notice.

Crooked House pub inquiry postponed to spring 2025; ATE Farms, owners of the site, are appealing against South Staffordshire Council's enforcement notice to rebuild the pub within three years after a fire. The council treats the fire as arson, with six arrests made. The public inquiry's delay will allow for the council to address the planning enforcement appeal after any separate court action related to the fire.
