A Chippenham man is to face trial by judge and jury accused of having sex with a 15-year-old girl.

Simon Webb is said to have had sex with the child during a four month period last spring and summer.

The 25-year-old is accused of committing the offence between the start of April, when the girl was almost 15-and-a-half, and the end of July.

Webb, of Brook Street, Chippenham, pleaded not guilty to one count of sexual activity with a child when he appeared at Swindon Crown Court.

He was released on conditional bail to Monday November 23 when he is due to face trial by jury.
