A ROSS-on-Wye man is to face trial at Gloucester Crown Court next month, accused of sexual offences with a child.

The man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, faces five charges of alleged historic sexual offences.

The charges include four counts of indecent assault on a girl under the age of 14, and gross indecency with a girl under the age of 14.

He is due to appear before Crown Court on November 20.
