Legendary chippy transformed with 'Midlands' biggest flag' to celebrate Platinum Jubilee
A Cradley Heath chippy has created "the biggest Union Flag in the Midlands" on the front of their restaurant.
Ivan's, on Reddal Hill Road, is also giving away chips on Saturday to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
Owner Warren Rudge, aged 54, said: "We think it is the biggest flag in the Midlands. You can see it all the way from Tesco.
"We have been open 65 years ourselves, not quite 70 years, but we have always been big fans of the Queen and the Royal Family.
"We have had nothing but positive comments, our flag has had a great reception in Cradley Heath."
The flag took two 14 hour shifts to complete and measures 11.4m x 5.7m which is 65 square metres, and covers the front of the Reddal Hill Road chippy.
And to mark the Platinum Jubilee Ivan's is giving away a scone of chips on Saturday.
Warren added: "On Saturday between 12 and 9pm we are giving away a free scope of chips for anyone who turns up. No purchase necessary.
"At the moment the flag is a temporary addition, but the amount of love people have been showing it, we may have to keep some aspects of it."
