An Oxfordshire pub has been handed a low food hygiene rating following a recent inspection.

The Lamb Tavern in Buckland was handed a two-out-of-five score, the Food Standards Agency’s website shows.

The assessment on November 16 means improvement is deemed to be "necessary" in relation to food hygiene.

It means that of the Vale of White Horse's 190 restaurants, cafes and canteens with ratings, 130 (68 per cent) have ratings of five and none have zero ratings.

The Food Standards Agency is in charge of inspecting and rating hospitality venues on a zero to five scale with zero being the lowest score and five the highest.

The inspectors judged the restaurant with regard to hygienic food handling, cleanliness and the condition of facilities and management of food safety.
