A Wealden drinking establishment has been handed a new four-out-of-five food hygiene rating.

The Blacksmiths Inn, a pub, bar or nightclub at The Green, Ninfield, East Sussex was given the score after assessment on February 9, the Food Standards Agency's website shows.

It means that of Wealden's 147 pubs, bars and nightclubs with ratings, 105 (71%) have ratings of five and none have zero ratings.
