Daryosh Rossookh, of Hunter's Ride in Stourbridge, owner of The Navigation Pub in Greensforge, appeared at Cannock Magistrates Court earlier this week, where he pleaded guilty to nine offences contrary to Food Hygiene Regulations and five offences contrary to Health and Safety legislation.

Food safety inspectors repeatedly found filthy conditions, high-risk food left out overnight, mouldy and out-of-date food in the fridges, and a long-standing mouse infestation.

They also reported a potential fire hazard at the South Staffordshire premises due to a build-up of grease in ventilation systems

South Staffordshire Council food safety officers carried out numerous visits to the pub near Kingswinford, where they reported the incorrect usage of coloured cutting boards contrary to the pub’s own system – presenting a cross-contamination risk.
