A Lowestoft man has admitted viewing indecent images on the internet, despite being banned from doing so.

Nathan Coleman, 24, of Suffolk Road, had been using an internet search engine which gave him anonymity so his partner wouldn't see his search history.

Convicted in 2013 of downloading illegal images he was given a suspended prison sentence. This has now expired, although he was still the subject of a sexual offences prevention order, external.

When police made an unannounced visit to his home in April, they found a tablet computer hidden under the bed.

An internet page left open showed he had been viewing fictional stories about underage children and bestiality.

Magistrates in Great Yarmouth were told they don't have sufficient sentencing powers to deal with Coleman and have referred the case to Ipswich Crown Court for sentencing.

A paving stone, commemorating 100 years since a Suffolk-born soldier was awarded the Victoria Cross, has been unveiled in Copdock.

William Henry Hewitt grew up in the village, but spent most of his life in South Africa.

He led a successful attack on an enemy pillbox near Ypres on 20 September 1917, getting injured several times in the process.

Jennifer Jones, the village recorder for Copdock, says the stone will be a new focus for the village: "Our war memorial is at the church, and that's half-a-mile away on the other side of the old A12.

"The headteacher has already said that on Remembrance Day, the children will come down here, and place the poppy crosses down here, so it's going to become a centre of remembrance, which is lovely for the whole village."

Network Rail’s engineers will spend the equivalent of 20,000 hours replacing more than six miles (10km) of overhead wire at Ilford as part of a £250m project to upgrade the wiring system on the mainline.

Once this work is complete the stretch from Chelmsford to Seven Kings will have had the new wire installed resulting in fewer delays, the company says.

Jamie Burles, from Greater Anglia, said: "We will make sure that customers can complete their journeys during all periods of engineering works, even if part of it is by bus."

Passengers are advised to check how their journey will be affected at National Rail, external, or with their train operator ahead of travelling.

The 25-year-old (pictured left) was a surprise absentee from the side that beat Bolton on Saturday, because of a hamstring problem.

"He went out and tried to train on Tuesday but he felt it when he had to stop and start, so he was never going to be fit," McCarthy said.

"I know I didn't tell anyone on Friday at my press conference, but I don't see why I should give anyone we're playing against a heads-up on what the team is likely to be. He'll be alright for Leeds I think."

Fellow defenders Luke Chambers, Tommy Smith and Adam Webster have also missed games this season.

As "Fresh Starts - New Beginnings, external" marks its fifth anniversary, it says they've supported 900 children, but there are still about 50 who have suffered abuse and need the charity's help, who are on the waiting list.

Founder and chief executive Diana Porter said: "I don't think more abuse is happening, I think more children are coming forward and that is a very very positive thing.

"We've actually had six children under three-years-of age being referred to us, up to those over 18.

"Most of them have been abused by someone they know - about 95% will have been a very close relation or very close friend that has abused them."
