The 62-year-old is alleged to have possessed two printed category C images of a child on November 12.

Pinney is also charged with three counts of making - a legal term which covers things like downloading or viewing - indecent images of children.

Those alleged offences relate to nine category A images, 43 category B images and 355 category C images. Category A images depict the most serious abuse.

Pinney appeared before magistrates in Northampton on Friday (December 17), who sent the case to Northampton Crown Court for trial.
