Wetherspoon pubs in and around Nottingham have won acclaim for their sparkling toilets in the national Loo of the Year Awards 2019.
The awards are aimed at highlighting and improving standards of public toilet provision across the UK.
Loo of the Year Awards inspectors made unannounced visits to thousands of toilets at sites across the UK to judge them.
All of the toilets are graded silver, gold, platinum or diamond with unacceptable toilets not graded at all.
The toilets are judged against numerous criteria, including decor and maintenance, cleanliness, accessibility, hand washing and drying equipment and overall management.
Sixteen Wetherspoon pubs have been awarded the platinum rating:
The Roebuck Inn, St James's Street, Nottingham
The Company Inn, Canal Street, Nottingham
The Joseph Else, South Parade, Nottingham
Lloyds No. 1 Bar, Carlton Street, Hockley
The Gooseberry Bush, Peel Street, Nottingham
The Free Man, Carlton
The Trent Bridge Inn, West Bridgford
The Samuel Hall, Sherwood
The Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren, Stapleford
The Woodthorpe Top, Mapperley
The Lady Chatterley, Eastwood
The William Peverel, Bulwell
The Ernehale, Arnold
The Last Post, Beeston
The Butter Cross, Bingham
The Pilgrim Oak, Hucknall
The Roebuck Inn manager, Alex Darby, said: "We are 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 2019 managing director, Mike Bone, said: "The toilets at the sixteen pubs have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.
"The pubs richly deserve their platinum awards."
