Dear community,
We regret to inform you of a significant change in our plans for the Crooked House restoration.
Our initial intention was to propose a comprehensive plan to the Council for the acquisition, reconstruction, and reopening of the iconic pub.
The Molyneux Family was prepared to invest £6.5 million towards this endeavour.
Unfortunately, due to recent events that came to our attention, we have been forced to make a difficult decision. While the details of our proposal were yet to be unveiled, the theft of crucial building materials from the fire-damaged site has rendered our plan unviable.
It is with deep disappointment that we share this news: the Molyneux Family will no longer be proposing the restoration project or contributing to its rebuild. The actions of those who chose to exploit this situation have irreparably impacted the feasibility and integrity of our efforts. We extend our gratitude to those who supported our vision, and we share in your disappointment at this turn of events.
The Crooked House holds a special place in our hearts, and we had hoped to create a brighter future for it. While our involvement has come to an unfortunate end, we remain hopeful that this cherished landmark will find the support it needs from other dedicated individuals.
Thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging time.
Sincerely,
The Molyneux Family
