Out of the restaurants, takeaways, pubs and bars listed in the latest inspections, three businesses have been given the second-worst rating of one out of five.

Ratings reveal marks handed out in recent visits to the food businesses, where they are judged on their standards of 'hygienic food handling', 'cleanliness and condition of facilities and building' and 'management of food safety'.

The Red Barn in Shrewsbury was the only establishment in the latest set of ratings to receive a five-out-of-five rating, and it shared the news on its Facebook page.

The Facebook post said: "So today we had our local authority inspection. I am over the moon to say we achieved a 5.

"Super proud of my team and how we have moved forward and keep moving forward. Not to mention the support of our lovely customers.

"Thank you all."

Shifnal Balti, 20 - 22 Broadway, Shifnal, was handed a score of one out of five on August 3, and Mo's Hub, TF4, Telford was handed the one rating on August 4.
