Barry Harding-Lenagan, 44, of Chelmsford Mews, Swinley, appeared before borough magistrates facing a charge of possessing 240 images “which portrayed, in an explicit and realistic way, a person performing an act of intercourse with a live animal, namely a dog, which was grossly offensive, disgusting or otherwise of an obscene character.”

It is also alleged that he created 2,313 indecent images of child abuse, 14 of which fall into the most serious category (A) and a further nine in category B.

Harding-Lenagan was granted unconditional bail until he makes his first appearance before a Bolton judge on December 4.
