An Alloa pub has been recognised for the quality and standards of its toilets.

The Bobbing John on Drysdale Street was awarded a platinum plus grading by inspectors in the Loo of the Year Awards 2024.

The awards aim to highlight and improve 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 in order to judge them.

All of the toilets are graded bronze, 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 Bobbing John, a Wetherspoon pub, is managed by Sarah Murdoch.

Ms Murdoch said: "We are delighted with the grading.

"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."

Becky Wall, Loo of the Year Awards 2024 managing director said: "The toilets at The Bobbing John have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.

"The pub deserves its platinum plus award."
