A coveted Cask Marque award has been presented to the Folly Bridge pub in Abingdon Road, Oxford.

The accolade is awarded only to pubs that prove they use the highest standard in the care and delivery of real ale. The award is made after an independent assessor has made two unannounced visits within a three-month period to check the temperature, appearance, aroma and taste of all the 0cask ales.

Trevor Holmes, brewing director of Wadworth's, said: "I am delighted to present this prestigious award. It confirms what our customers have been saying that they can always get a perfect pint in our pubs."
