TWO Wetherspoon pubs in the area have won acclaim for the quality and standards of their toilets.
The Picture Palace in Fairfield Road, Braintree, and the Battesford Court in Newland Street, Witham, have each been awarded a platinum rating by inspectors in the Loo of the Year Awards 2022.
The awards are aimed at highlighting and improving standards of 'away from home' 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, platinum plus or diamond, with unacceptable toilets not graded at all.
The toilets are judged against numerous criteria, including décor and maintenance, cleanliness, accessibility, hand washing and drying equipment and overall management.
The Battesford Court manager Joanne Gilchrist said: “We are delighted with the award.
“Staff at the pub ensure the toilets are in excellent condition at all times and it is great that this has been recognised by the inspectors.”
Managing director of the awards Becky Wall said: "The toilets at the two pubs have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.
"The pubs deserve their platinum awards."
