In a post on the Save the Crooked House (Let's Get it Rebuilt) social media group she said the much-missed pub "holds a place in my heart as a Black Country woman".

Although the pub near Himley, which was destroyed by fire and then bulldozed in August last year, is geographically out of her constituency, she has said she will support the case by the group, which has 38,0000 members on Facebook, for it to be re-built 'brick by brick.'

She said: "One of my priorities during this parliament is to protect and promote our precious history and heritage, and celebrate all the wonderful things we have on our doorstep, and I have joined the All Party Parliamentary Group for Heritage as part of this aim.
