A CRADLEY Heath pub has been named the number one place to have a "number one and two."

The Moon Under Water in High Street was flushed with success when awarded a platinum star rating by inspectors in the Loo of the Year Awards 2016.

The awards are aimed at highlighting and improving standards of 'away from home' toilet provision across the UK.

Authorised inspectors make unannounced visits to hundreds of toilets at sites across the UK, in order to judge them.

All of the toilets are graded from bronze to gold with unacceptable toilets not graded at all.

The platinum rating is given only to outlets which offer "exceptional toilets."

The Moon Under Water, a Wetherspoon pub, is managed by Ashley Bater.

He said: “I am delighted with the award.  Staff at the pub ensure the toilets are in first-class condition at all times and it is great that this has been recognised by the inspectors.”

The Loo of the Year Awards 2016 managing director, Mike Bone, said: “The toilets at The Moon Under Water have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.

“The pub richly deserves its platinum award – the highest individual award the judges can deliver.”

The platinum rating is given only to outlets which offer "exceptional toilets."

The toilets are judged against numerous criteria, including décor and maintenance, cleanliness, accessibility, hand washing and drying equipment and overall management.
