Two groups reportedly clashed at the remains of the famous wonky pub, which was demolished last month after a huge fire.

It is understood that Staffordshire Police was called to an incident at the site on Saturday night. Witnesses claimed a number of people required hospital treatment.

The pub's demise captured the imagination of the Black Country, and a number of people had taken up a round-the-clock 'vigil'.

But as of Sunday, the camp had been deserted.
