Wanted: new owner to run The Crooked House, Britain's 'wonkiest pub' that's been serving pints for almost 200 years

• Ambitious buyers have the chance to own what's been dubbed the "wonkiest pub" in Britain. 
• The Crooked House near Dudley has gone on the market at a guide price of just over $800,000. 
• The number of pubs in the UK is falling due to surging costs and declining patronage.

Ever dreamt of owning your own bar? If you don't mind tilting your head a bit, The Crooked House could be the one for you.

The pub just outside Dudley, in England's West Midlands, is one of 61 being sold by Marston's in an apparent bid to cut overheads following a recent surge in costs. The company runs about 1,500 pubs and employs 12,000 people.
