A former company director has appeared before a judge accused of raping and sexually assaulting a child.
Mark Tilley, 58, of Ramsey Walk, Guisborough, will deny the offences when the matter comes before Teesside Crown Court.
Tilley was listed as a director of Warrington-based Instrument Consultant Technical Services Ltd, a company which dissolved in 2019.
He faces five charges, all dating back to the 1990s and all involving the same complainant.
It is alleged that between 1992 and 1997 he indecently assaulted a girl under the age of 14.
RESIDENTS on a road in Leigh are getting fed up of drivers using it as a race track . James Lowe has lived on Charles Street for 20 years but said in the last few he and his neighbours have noticed more motorists speeding past. Some are using the road as a cut through to bypass traffic on main roads such as Holden Road, especially at peak times. The road has a 20mph limit but Mr Lowe, 73, said drivers travel on it much faster. He said: It had been worse in the last two or three years as there seems to have been more traffic in the centre of Leigh.

Mr Unsworth, of Holt Street who has tetraplegia caused by spinal injuries he sustained in a road accident, said: “I feel that the council are not paying any
attention.
“They’ve told me they’re awaiting funding to improve the junction but have been saying this for the last few years.”
The dad of one has become so fed up that he has taken matters into his own hands and plans to put up placards on the railings. They will call for a safer crossing and follow a petition set up by Mr Unsworth which has garnered more than 200 signatures.
