Bricks nabbed from the site of the now-crumbled "UK's wonkiest pub" are making their way onto social media sites and being flogged for cash.<\/p>\n
An unofficial security guard now patrols the area of the Crooked House remains, with the arson-hit boozer reeling from the recent fire.<\/p>\n
Some headed to the site of the 18th-century watering hole, which went up in flames in early August, to nab a brick or 60 from the ruins.<\/p>\n

Those bricks are now finding themselves on Facebook marketplace, where bold sellers are whacking prices of "\u00a350 each" on the rubble, with a "first come first serve" system in place.<\/p>\n

One wannabe entrepreneur wrote: "House bricks from the Crooked House. Have around 60. First come first serve \u00a350 each."<\/p>\n
Another even offered brick variants, with soot from the fire seeing the price of rubble increased ever so slightly, with the seller writing: "Bricks from the former Crooked House pub. Clean ones \u00a310 each. Extra \u00a32.50 for the ones with soot on."<\/p>\n
Now, security are on site to vet approaching vehicles who may be trying to make off with an armful of bricks.<\/p>\n
Rob Brown, the self-proclaimed security guard of the pub, has claimed to sit on the site for "12 days and nights" and making sure nobody removes anything from the site.<\/p>\n
