Four were in the clear but in one an underage youth was served.

Police neighbourhood specialist PC Paul Stephens said: 'I am pleased with the pubs that refused to serve the youth that was under 18 and am confident that the one that did serve will put in place the appropriate training to ensure that this does not re-occur.'
